Perfect for a sunny afternoon in town, the Mansfield Botanic Park is open at all times and offers barbecue facilities, picnic shelters and tables, a fitness station, an adventure playground for kids of all ages and toilets. Bordered by Fords Creek, the gardens are a beautiful mix of native and introduced species. A popular location for walkers and runners, the park is also just the spot for a game of kick-to-kick or cricket with the kids. Dogs are also allowed to run off-leash within the park when accompanied by an owner.
