Playgrounds

Pratten Park is home to the Gold Coast's first All Abilities Playground.

At the northern end of the park, the all-abilities playground has:

  • a huge hill slide
  • a flying fox
  • a swing set catering for up to 5 children
  • a fully harnessed seat for those who need more support.

The fully fenced playground provides access for all children to experience fun, interactive and challenging play. Families and carers can watch over them in an enjoyable and relaxing environment.

The second playground is towards the southern end. Children can try out the pedal-powered monorail, climb the pirate ship and slip down the slides.

Dog exercise area

There is a large designated off leash dog exercise area at the southern end of the park, opposite Broadbeach State School.

Dogs must always be on leash unless in a signed designated off leash area. Dogs are prohibited in children's playground areas. Tough penalties apply.

City of Gold Coast has many areas where you can exercise your dog off leash, with one of these areas in Pratten Park.
