Denis Morrissey Park
Denis Morrissey Park has something for everyone – play equipment, walking trail, large open space, a creek to explore and a fabulous dog park for the family hound to have a play too.
Located in Hectorville, this area is part of the Torrens Catchment and Fourth Creek Trail. Clean and well maintained, there is plenty of space to take a picnic lunch and a few ball games and spend the afternoon, or just drop by for a quick turn on the playground. There are public toilets located at the entrance and a car park.
Denis Morrissey Park playground equipment
The playground has a variety of equipment including swings, rockers and a climbing frame with multiple features including games and a slide. There is a picnic table and bench seats, lots of shade and paved paths suitable for a scooter or bike ride.
Exploring Fourth Creek
Fourth Creek runs through Denis Morrissey Park creating a fun and interesting place to investigate – perfect for splashing around after a little rain or for exploring during the drier months.
Once you cross over the first bridge, follow the path, over another bridge and head down along the walking trail.
