Merrilands Domain on Mangorei Road in New Plymouth is a lovely spot for outdoor activities and relaxation. The park is well-maintained with plenty of open space, making it perfect for picnics, sports, or just enjoying nature. The playground is great for kids, and the walking paths are ideal for a stroll or a quick jog. It’s a peaceful and family-friendly place, offering a nice escape in the heart of the city. Highly recommend visiting for some fresh air and fun!
Great place for a soccer game, large open area but sometimes the nets are locked up.nRiver down the back is great, slowly gets deeper. Low to high jumping places on the other side where you can't hit the bottom.nGrassed sheltered areas for picnics.
Tai chi class in the hall. Beautiful sunny day and over 20 people in the class. Very relaxing
I take my dogs down to Audrey Gale park. It is an excellent off lead place for dogs. The river is so beautiful. And the park is great for walking around. Tracks in bush etcnThe problem though is that it is a Disc Golf area too. So people who play the sport are often dominating the area and uncaring of people walking and playing with their dogs. We have nearly been hit by flying discs a few times. It also has a BBQ area and people leave food scraps and bones.
