HILLGROVE CRESCENT RESERVE
12 Nov 2024
Nestled in Berwick, Victoria, the new playground at Hillgrove Crescent Reserve is a testament to blending natural aesthetics with engaging play elements. Created by Activity Playgrounds, this project showcases their Australian-made Native Range, designed to spark creativity and physical development in children through interactive, nature-inspired activities.
From the adaptive Nambung Agility Trail to unique design elements that harmonise with the natural surroundings, this playground stands out as a vibrant addition to the community.
At the heart of this project is the Nambung Agility Trail, a native-inspired pathway that offers nine unique activities designed to boost physical and mental agility. With every twist and turn, children encounter new challenges that progressively increase in difficulty, encouraging them to test their limits and build resilience. What sets the Nambung Agility Trail apart is its seamless integration of natural ‘branch holds’ and an adaptable layout that fits perfectly within Hillgrove’s unique landscape. 
Beyond play, the design embraces Hillgrove Crescent Reserves natural surroundings. Using ethically sourced Australian native timber, the playground’s structure harmonises with the environment while encouraging a sensory experience. Thoughtfully crafted elements give children the feel of exploring an outdoor woodland setting, blending fun with the rich, earthy tones of native Australian timber for an immersive play journey. 
Every feature in this playground, from its climbing structures to agility trails, has been meticulously crafted to adapt to different site constraints. This ensures the playground remains both accessible and stimulating for a diverse age range. The modular, customisable nature of the Native Range products, like the Nambung Agility Trail, means that each installation is unique and crafted to suit its specific setting. 
Activity Playgrounds, an Australian-owned and operated family business, takes pride in sourcing and crafting their play equipment locally. With a commitment to using high quality materials, the company ensures each playground stands the test of time, offering communities a durable, long-lasting play experience. This commitment is evident in Hillgrove Crescent Reserve, where each element reflects Activity Playgrounds' dedication to Australian craftsmanship and family values.
