Mount Victoria Playspace and Court Upgrades

Update 23 June 2025

Draft playspace designs open for community feedback

Council has developed two exciting draft designs for the new playspace at Mount Victoria Memorial Park. Now we need your feedback to help choose the final one.

Each design was created based on input from the local community and includes a variety of inclusive and engaging play options, accessible pathways, and nods to the site’s unique history.

Both designs include swings, climbing features, and social spaces for families to gather and play, but with different strengths and themes.

Images of each design can be found by clicking the icons to the right of this page.

Your feedback is essential. Let us know which features you prefer and how we can best deliver a playspace that meets the needs of Mount Victoria’s community and visitors alike.

A community consultation session will be held at Mount Victoria Memorial Park on Sunday 29 June, from 11am to 2pm, with Council staff available onsite to answer questions and gather feedback.

Another consultation session will be held at Mount Victoria Public School from 2.40pm on Tuesday 1 July 2025.

Consultation is open until 7 July 2025.

Hard copies are available. If you would like assistance in any way to view the designs or to complete this survey please contact Council on 02 4723 5000 or council@bmcc.nsw.gov.au. To assist our team to direct your enquiry, please quote the survey name Mount Victoria Playspace.

Design statement

Council has listened to the community and developed two options for the renewal of the play space at Mount Victioria.
Both provide swings, climbing elements, balance elements and seating, but respond to community input in different ways.
Both extend the play space up the embankment up to the tennis courts for climbing play in different ways, and both offer a level lawn area for picnic or intergenerational games such as bocce.
Both offer a diverse range of equipment but favour different age groups.

The options are presented below. Please take some time to view the designs and share your thoughts with us through the survey. Please note that some 'trading' of elements between the two options may be possible, so let us know which features of each option you like best.

Option one
Responds to the request for a visually engaging feature that draws attention and encourages visitors to linger longer in Mount Victoria. It features Moduplay’s ‘Treetops SkyTower’, a striking, tall play structure inspired by Australian native wildlife and landscapes. As the first of its kind in the Blue Mountains, the SkyTower will serve as a unique landmark for the park, sure to attract families and spark curiosity from afar. This option slightly favours younger children

Option two
Responds the request to retain a challenging circuit and features Moduplay’s Champion Multi Play Unit, an active play structure that integrates a flying fox with an exciting mix of sliding, climbing, balancing and upper body challenges encouraging coordination, strength building, and adventurous play. The multi-person rocker is replaced by two smaller rockers in line with the native animals theme and there are markings on the path to encourage activities. This option slightly favours older children.
