Covering some 240 hectares around the confluence of the Liesbeek and Black Rivers, this new park is one of the city's largest, with the potential to provide a common space for the long-divided communities that surround it. Paths beside the Liesbeek River are pleasant for a stroll, jog or cycle, and the wetlands provide excellent opportunities for birdwatching.
Within or adjacent to the park boundaries are the River Club, Oude Molen Eco-Village and the South African Astronomical Observatory. Both the city and Western Cape governments are collaborating on developing infrastructure for this park in the coming years.
