Ruffey Lake Park: Ruffey Lake Park is an iconic Eastie destination that feels like part of the family for anyone living in Manningham, whether you’ve run its tracks at school, sung along at council carols or spent countless hours at its playgrounds. With multiple play spaces to suit all ages—from the Boulevarde Playground for little ones, the Ninja Warrior Playground for older kids, a tiny stop near the disc golf course, and the all-rounder at Victoria Road—there’s something for everyone. Add in rolling trails perfect for bikes and scooters (with a few uphill challenges), off-leash dog zones, picnic areas with BBQs and vast open spaces to relax under the sky, and you’ve got a park that truly has it all.
