For a stay in Berrimah, Whipray Park and Mirawood Park offer two different park experiences. Whipray Park has an accessible path that curves along the edge of the park and has a slight change in elevation, as well as a playground for all age groups. Mirawood Park has a shaded playground and an accessible path to the playground and drinking fountain. If you are considering Berrimah as a place to stay, you can assess your planned park visit based on these features: Does the path itself matter, are particular pieces of play equipment important, or would you like to use a path to reach specific park destinations?

Paths with different features

The accessible path in Whipray Park runs along the edge of the park. Its curved shape and slight change in elevation are two specific factors to consider when planning a visit. If you are paying particular attention to the path when making your choice, you can take both features into account and consider whether its route suits your plans.

In Mirawood Park, an accessible path leads to the playground and drinking fountain. This lets you assess the path by its destinations.

Along with accessibility, the path’s route and destinations may factor into your decision.

Playgrounds: equipment, ages and shade

The age range and individual pieces of equipment offer different ways to choose: they help you assess the playground’s intended users and see what kinds of play equipment it has. If a particular piece of equipment is a deciding factor for you, you can take that feature into account when making your choice.

You can also consider Whipray’s slides, nest swing and spring rider, as well as the shade at Mirawood, as individual features when making your choice.
