This use to be quite a good setup with areas to play on both sides of the main path, however it's been left to degrade and now only the section on the south side of the path really has anything left. There is still some stones and logs to climb on and some swings which the kids enjoyed, but it's not the reason to visit as it once was before.

Mountain biking

Unless you are good at trials riding, what is shown in the photo is not for a bike. However it is a fair destination to entertain young children mid ride.

The surrounding woods have plenty of bike trails if you look for them, they are just not signposted.
