Come to Sweeney Reserve for a quick escape to nature. The lush trees and sprawling green fields will offer you respite only minutes away from Petrie.
Along one of the many pathways in the reserve, you will find a partially fenced playground for the kids to enjoy. This playground has soft-fall mats, sand and mulch to protect them from harsh falls.
If you're a history fan, you can follow the heritage trail(PDF, 7MB). This is a self-guided tour starting at Sweeney Reserve and finishing at Old Petrie Town. Along the trail, you will learn about the establishment of Petrie and significant buildings and structures in the area.
The trail and reserve are also dog-friendly with an enclosed off-leash area for your furry friend.
With our shaded electric barbecue areas, you can have a hot lunch. Benches are throughout the reserve for you to enjoy your lunch and the parklands. You can worry less knowing there is an accessible toilet block, water fountains and rubbish bins within reach.
