Parks and Recreation
At Springfield Rise at Spring Mountain, the outdoors beckons at every turn.
With more than 50ha of open space including 15 neighbourhood parks, bushland reserves, a carefully planned network of walking and cycling paths, an adventure park and sporting fields currently under construction, you’ll find yourself in the great outdoors before you even know it.
Wherever you are, stunning views are all around. Hike to White Rock, one of the region’s most popular bushwalking spots in the conservation park next to Springfield Rise at Spring Mountain—you could even mountain bike all the way there from Robelle Domain along scenic paths and bush tracks. Work up a sweat horse riding the challenging Yuddamun Trail or stroll along Six Mile Creek boardwalk through the cool shade of the blue gum forest.
With so many opportunities to play, explore and enjoy nature, being active will become a way of life at Springfield Rise at Spring Mountain.
Enchanted Woods Park
Enchanted Woods Park is the perfect spot to let the kids imagination run wild. Children can climb to the top of the castle just like a prince rescuing a princess, then take a walk across the balance rope bridge whilst imagining crossing the castle moat. There’s even the sword in the stone to try and pull out… just like King Arthur!
The park features a climbing frame and slide, picnic tables and shelter plus large green kick-about space.
