Park 16
Victoria Park/ Pakapakanthi (Park 16)
Work out, walk your dog or ride your bike, there's lots of space in the largest Park Lands site.
Bring your bike and cycle the 1.3km Criterium Track or arrive equipment free and walk/run on the tracks stopping at the exercise stations along your route. If it's fido who needs the exercise, make use of the off-leash area.
Refresh at Velo Café below the heritage-listed grandstand or try the Velo-spin area, a high-tech indoor training studio. This can be a busy park so it's worth checking for booked activities before arriving to avoid disappointment.
Please note there are locations where dogs can be off-leash, but also areas where they need to be on-leash.
View the map to see both on-leash and off-leash areas.
