Parks, playgrounds and lookouts
The Scenic Rim Regional Council has 129 maintained parks constituting 426 hectares of land and 43 playgrounds that provide places for recreation, relaxation and community connection.
Parks and playgrounds help promote an active and healthy lifestyle, and help strengthen the social fabric of our communities as meeting places to enjoy our beautiful natural environments.
In line with the shared Community Plan vision for the Scenic Rim as a region of vibrant towns and villages, Council has allocated a total of $3.68 million to capital expenditure and the maintenance of parks and public gardens in 2020-21.
Our Council supports the fundamental human right of play by providing attractive and safe playgrounds that enable children to develop, learn, grow and have fun. Playgrounds can also help revitalise and sustain communities where they become a visitor attraction in their own right.
