Great place to have a walk, play or walk your dog! Huge park where you can do your daily walk or run, physical activity and dog walking. Everyday a lot of people come here and enjoy their time. In sunny weekend, people also play football and rugby. There is a beautiful memorial in their just beside the graveyard. It also has a pre school close by. I enjoy the view and walk every time I go at the Avonhead park. ❤️
