๐Ÿ† Funzaroo Verdict

Best for families with children of any age who want multiple activity options in one location - playground, splash area, skate park, outdoor gym, and lakeside walking all in one park. Summer visits unlock the splash area and the arboretum is at its most appealing in autumn colour.

โ€œNothing special to visit in winter season. But you can have many activities there like skating and many gym equipments are also there in open. So, you can enjoy the feel of an open gym. Suitable for running and morning or evening walks. But should visit in summer.โ€
