One of Sydney's hidden gems. Riding schools, lessons, horse hire and pony rides.
Queens Park
Queens Park is a 26 hectare park, set in a natural amphitheatre at the foot of dramatic sandstone cliffs, with panoramic views of the Sydney region.
It was originally established to commemorate the centenary of European settlement in 1888 and has three giant Moreton Bay figs that may be older than the park itself.
The park features many sporting fields bordered by sandstone outcrops and established trees with a number a City backdrops.
A viewing area located the sandstone ridge on the eastern edge of the Park provides spectacular views over Queens Park and across to the city.
Queens Park is also home to some of the oldest and largest trees in Centennial Parklands.
In particular three Moreton Bay Figs located in the north eastern corner of the Park are the finest example of these species in the Parklands.
Today the park is used for informal recreation and organised sports such as cricket, rugby, soccer and touch football.
Queens Park Master Plan
In 2003, the Queens Park Master Plan was prepared by the Trust to guide the ongoing maintenance and usage of the park.
