Central Gardens, Merrylands is one of Cumberland’s most popular parks and is the ideal local outdoor venue for family parties, group activities and school excursions. It is located at the corner of the Cumberland Highway and Merrylands Road, Merrylands.

This bushland setting has two children’s playgrounds, animal enclosures, educational bush trails, ponds and water features, amphitheatre, tennis courts, open grass areas as well as BBQ and picnic areas and parking.

As part of the NSW Government Stronger Communities Fund, we are preparing to upgrade the larger playground in Central Gardens to be an inclusive play space for all.

Park users had the chance to vote on their preferred play equipment at a pop-up engagement session at the park on Saturday 15 September 2018. Online voting was open until Saturday 22 September 2019.
