About Plumpton Park
Lake, Woodland and Wetland at Plumpton Park
Plumpton Park has a tranquil small lake with ducks at its centre. Remnant Cumberland Plain open woodland gives the reserve a bushland character, and a constructed wetland built on a stormwater retention basin adds a conservation area alongside the recreational space. A walking path and walking trails wind through the reserve, and a bike path runs through the park. Plumpton Park is surprisingly spacious and rarely crowded.
Barbecues and Picnic Areas at Plumpton Park
Plumpton Park has barbecues near its western entrance, including covered cooking areas, along with picnic tables, seating and shaded areas. The barbecues are gas or electric and work on a first come, first served basis, so no booking is needed. Pressing a button runs a barbecue for about 10 to 20 minutes. Charcoal barbecues are typically restricted unless designated charcoal disposal bins are provided, while visitors may generally bring their own gas barbecue if it is continuously supervised.
