Information
Highlands DP5 sits on the plains between Mt Ridley and Mt Aitken.
The Stage 61 park design provides tree-lined avenues, which divide the park diagonally along pedestrian desire lines, establishing a series of spaces including large and small kick-about areas, a playground and a lawn dotted informally with Eucalypts.
The focus of the park is the shelter and playground located close to the remnant Eucalypt stands. A custom-designed shelter provides shade and seating overlooking the playground and kick-about areas. The unified colour palette of the shelter and play equipment further integrates the focal features of the reserve.
