Along the shores of Chipping Norton Lakes stretches a series of parks and reserves. One of the most popular of those is
Black Muscat Park.
Offering a large "All Access Playground" this park is a favourite amongst my children. In addition to the large climbing structure and slippery dips, there are various assessable pieces of equipment connected by ramps for children with disabilities. Others make sounds or are can be used from a wheelchair. A soft fall rubber floor helps keep everyone safe.
Right next to the playground is a large paved area with free electric barbecues and dozens of picnic tables under mesh pergolas. It is very popular when the weather is fine, so plan to get there early if you want a large piece of the action. Spread out your table covers, and hang your balloons to reserve your spot. Designed specifically for the purpose, this area is ideal for birthday parties and large family gatherings.
The large grass area is the perfect place for an impromptu game of cricket or soccer. To the far side of the grass is a large crop of native trees that makes a great spot for exploring or a make believe adventure. The far side is bordered by the Georges River.
Toilet facilities are available, as is plenty of parking.
