Reviews of Queens Park, Invercargill
H.Great park for walking, having time to spend with kids, nice playground, animals, I loved the peacock 🦚 there. Beautiful garden as well.
C. C.A fabulous park..we meandered around for 4 hrs! Lots to see..Aviary, Farm Park, Winter Garden, Chinese Garden, Japanese Garden, Rock Garden, NZ Garden, Rose Garden & the Jessie Calder Garden is attached with another Rose Garden. Very beautiful 😍
m.Very nice park with cafeplay ground and splash pad. Dogs allowed but must on leash. Beautiful maintained gardens and hot houses
T.Walked around with the dog on a leash for over 2hrs . Took turns going into the inside garden and animal area where the dog could not go . But a good day .clean toilets available .
F. F.great to find a santuary place in this area only covered a small part...People of all ages enjoying the place and no cops
I. B.Huge space, lovely walks on sealel walkways, great Playground for Kids. Beautiful Tree.
A. J.Fantastic, beautiful park right in the middle of the city.
S. E.An oasis of peace and tranquility for the wary traveler. The gardens are beautiful as were the birds in the aviary.
L. M.Excellent park for the family to explore with plenty of different areas tucked away and pockets of shelter.
C. G.Nice park with trees, big playgrounds, cafe, botanic gardens and an animal enclosure. Not bad considering the cost (free)
N. W.A great park to take a walk through. It is massive. Very relaxed atmosphere amongst beautifully landscaped grounds. Worth a visit whether local or tourists, handy to other amenities.
G. B.Love walking in this park went to take photos of the animals. Tui, peacocks, roosters, pigs, goats, ducks, and lots more.
K.What a wonderful asset for Invercargill, we had a lovely time walking through the gardens. Our children especially enjoyed splashing through the paddling pool and water playground in the children's play area.
C. R.Queens park is a perfect lovely park here in Invercargill. Great for absolutely everything! Including taking the kids, walking your dogs, going on a run/exercising, being a tourist, whilst being full of boredom as a local from invercargill you can go for a walk. A great carpark on gala street perfect to meet up with your friends. There are loads of statues and hidden quirky things all around the park. It is great for any weather because of the massive old trees that give you shade if its sunny and shelter from the wind and rain. It is maintaiend perfectly. There is an animal park and an avery also. An awesome playground which includes a water play area. Many picnic spots and endless opportunities for fun to be found. The list could go on. A great assest for invercargill which is otherwise rather dull. It is beautifully maintained and abundant amount of rubbish bins and toilet facilities meaning you can spend your entire day here and you will not be struggling. Recommend to visit here as a tourist too.
l. p.Nice garden to walk around, good for families, couples and even has a golf course for golf lovers. Were some cute ducklings there when I went and lovely cherry blossoms. There is also a part with animals with an electric fence, did not expect to see a couple of wallabies and some goats.
M.Loved these beautifully cared for gardens
G. G.I watched the Matariki display which started on the 1st of July. It is a celebration of the Maori New year. Tuesday night was the last night for the display. It was really beautiful with coloured light sculptures, sounds and Maori chants and music, from loudspeakers. The only thing is it can be very cold this time of year and it was cold this evening. So good to have very warm clothing.
C. D.Beautiful gardens! Quite extensive and worth a good wander around. Really enjoyed the experience. The stumpery was like an elephant graveyard but with wood. I've never come across one before and found it fascinating!
A. P.Stunning place to visit, hours slip away and every season is so different
D.Great place to spend time with family and a great playground for the kids. A peaceful place with good walks to do, animals to look at and some amazing gardens. You can really spend alot of time here and it's just a nice place to be
A. D.World class level park.
AMAZING... beautifully landscaped, you can find an aviary, a mini zoo, ponds, Japanese garden. It is Huge and extremely well kept and clean.
D.Not bad park my grandsons enjoyed it could do with Xtra stuff to do like a shareable gym and maybe update the play ground like brighter colors expand it.
M. S.Great place to chill or lots to view
E.Great park with something for everyone...playground, tropical house, sculptures etc
G. C.Extraordinary, so much more than the basic park. Gardens, exercise devises, children's play area, golf, Frisby golf, scenic, well formed paths and many more unexpected features. Allow as much time as needed to relax and enjoy. A repeat visit to discover more gems.
R. L.It's peaceful an has a zoo part an lots of beautiful things to look, like the rose gardens are one of my favourite, an I like to call it feiry land, next to the duck poud. An don't forget to take some bread. As the duck are super friendly an come right up to you, also there's the rock hunting is great fun for the kids. They have to hunt for rocks. Keeps them busy. An not only that. They also have the playground.. Great place to take the kids an a picnic.
M. H. D. l. S.Great place to do walks and exercise. There are flower gardens, ducks in the pond, an array of tall trees and art sculptures. A quiet place perfect for meditation or performing yoga.
S. P.A beautiful place to walk around and just enjoy the peace and quiet. The animal park is good with a variety of animals but the flower garden is a different amazing wonder in itself. Must visit if you are in the area.
L.Great gardens so tidy. Great playground, nice animal section. Pity fountain wasn't working
g. c.A lovely park to wander around. Something for all ages to enjoy.
C.Always a good experience. A great sunny day with lots of young families enjoying playground, duck pond, farm animals, aviary, rose garden, stumpary, walkways and open space. Just some attention to picking up lollie and icecream wrapping etc and it would be perfect.
R. L.Another great nz park. One of the best, variety of gardens, birdlife, and the stumpery. Only in nz. Well worth a visit, the kids playgtound water features is amusing
N. C.Large green oasis on the fringe of the city that's great for photography. Parking is plentiful for all sizes of vehicles. There's plenty to see and do... kids play ground, frisbee golf, cafe, duck pond (don't feed them bread as it's bad for them, Google what's ok to give them), various themed garden areas, stumpery, bird aviaries, glass house, animal park, golf course, fitness circuit, statues, and a double layered fountain out front. Treasure hunt for hidden painted stones, or hide some for others to find!
The Invercargill Museum and information center was here too but sadly the building has been closed. A great loss.
L.It think this place is amazing! I put so photos of the animals there. They have a really nice cafe called The Cheeky Llama, with is super nice. I also think the playground area is great for kids of all ages, as there is things children that are older would enjoy! I love this place and I totally recommend!
J.Nice park ever! We come here to feed ducks, watch birds and take our boy at the playground. This park has a cafe as well where you can have lunch
M.Great place for the kids lots of lovely flowers, and the kids paddling pool is awesome in warmer weather
J. H.This is a super fun place to go with your family, friends or just for a stroll. There is an animal reserve, a bird aviary, an amazing playground and lots of other fun things to do and see.
N. R.Lovely setting, gardens, play ground, tree lined walks, adult fitness equipment
B. F.Queens Park Stumpery in its uniqueness is something I never really seen before in a almost arty nature kind of way. If you like the outdoors and happen to be in the park when the weather is favorable I would recommend adding it to the list of many other cool areas spread throughout. There's no entrance fee and can take less than 10min to see the Stumpery end to end and that is if you rush through it, just follow the signs if you having any trouble, better yet try obtain a map of the park. From a tourists perspective I can at least say been there done that.
B. a. K. W.We only had time for a short break in the morning and visited the animal park here, we were really lucky to see many animals being fed. It was around 9:30am on a weekday and would definitely recommend the experience.
H. T.Lovely park in the centre of Invercargill. Lots of grounds to walk through, all beautifully maintained. Great kids playground and animals to view.
F. S.Great park, the kids playground is superb. My daughter loved it.
C. H.Gets more awesome by the year. The castle depicted here doesn't show it in a good light though!
G.I love the park. My favourite place to walk. So many nooks and crannies.
A. C.Beautiful park. Worth stopping in. Lovely rose garden. Lots of space. Public toilets and a cafe.

M. D.Lovely spacious gardens, a credit to the council. Interesting collection of chickens and rabbits
A. P.Great place for a relaxing walking no matter the weather. Something for everybody to enjoy for bird avairies to a Winter garden. Perfect for a photo backdrop.
I. R.A beautiful place and a gem of the city. Whether it is for a lunchtime walk, jog or playtime for the kids, it's such a joy to be in. It has many different gardens and pathways to explore and enjoy the stunning landscape architecture. I remember it fondly from my early school days.
A.Well worth a trip here no matter where you come from. Local or tourist this is one of the most beautiful parks in NZ. Plenty to see whether you like the gardens or the playground, the animals or the birds. This park is massive. A great place of serenity for a walk or a run. I'm pretty sure if your dogs are on a lead they are allowed too. Stunning place!
M.This park is really spectacular, in terms of being ornamental. It is divided into sections that you will enjoy walking around, and see some seasonal planting. I love walking through the rose garden, following and using fitness tracks. It's a family friendly place, it has a cafe near the children's playground.
G. G.Our favourite place to go too in Invercargill as we are from Dunedin. My kids love the park and the animals and the amazing art work around the Queen's Park..also the castle, always a novelty for us when we come down.
s.Great park lots to see and do wonderful playground for kids very beautiful
G.The pride of Invercargill is Queens Park, a magnificent public park in the heart of the city. The park sprawls across 80 hectares of beautifully kept gardens, wildlife habitats, and sports areas.
Highlights of this New Zealand Garden of National Significance include a stunning rose garden, a rhododendron dell, an azalea garden, a Japanese garden, bush paths through a selection of native plants, rock and herb gardens, and a stumpery. An indoor Winter Garden features tropical and flowering plants, and a range of cacti are displayed in an adjoining structure. The park also houses an impressive bird aviary, farmyard area, and animal enclosures.
Queens Park is perfect for families with children. There is a popular playground, a waterpark, and plenty of space for running around. Bring your own picnic or visit the café in the centre of the park.
The extensive sporting facilities in the park include an 18-hole golf course, a disc golf course, tennis courts, Cricket, Croquet, and Bowling Clubs, and a 4km fitness trail with twenty exercise stations.
Whether exploring this botanic wonderland, working up a sweat on the fitness track, walking your dog down dramatic tree-lined paths, or picnicking with friends and family, Queens Park has something for everyone!
Note: Dog access is allowed if the dog is on a leash. Go here for more dog friendly walks and areas in Southland.

S.There's so much to see, you really could spend all day here. Lots of animals, birds, play ground for the kids & lots of plants too.
R.I didn't know what to expect when I saw Queens Park on the map. There were plenty of parking. Afterwards, I decided to wonder around, then saw alpacas and emus just chilling in the same enclosure - that was one of the oddest things I've seen during the visit. It turns out that the centre of the venue is full of animals across the Tasman - sort of like a zoo.
Then, walking further north, I realised that the northern part of the park is actually a golf course - don't accidentally go in, otherwise you're gonna get hit!
Furthermore, there were several themed gardens you could visit, but I think some can be done better, especially the so called Japanese garden.
Overall, it's worth a visit. It has plenty of parking, free, and many things to experience.
C. U.Incredible park! Something for everyone for sure! Playground for the children, situated near the Cheeky Llama Cafe. Rose Garden, Museum, with a cafe inside. Tuataras. Birds. Golf. Yes, something for everyone. And, plenty of space and walking! Other then some individuals visiting an smoking where the playground is (non smoking area), and dogs in the playground (no dog area). It's a great place for friends and family!
h.It's beautiful any season of the year to go for a stroll or to do the exercise circuit. Great playground for kids to play and a walk through bird aviary.

N.Of all of the things we saw in Invercargill, Queens Park is what we'd definitely come back for. The place is amazing. I was totally overwhelmed by the remarkable presentation of so many different gardens and lawns in the park. They were all impeccably designed and maintained. The whole place was incredible. The aviary area also was excellent. Deserves more than 5 stars. This place is a real credit in particular to the groundskeepers but also all of the citizens of Invercargill.
M.I always like biking and walking around Queens Park.

R. R.We are so happy we stayed close to Queens Park for our month in Invercargill. Every walk entails a new discovery. Incredibly it integrates flower gardens, golf course, exercise course, frisbee golf, open zoo, aviary, tuatara exhibits, cricket stadium and a sculpture of Bert Munro.
R.Well looked after, very nice to walk through and see all the different things Queens park has within
C.We are totally spoilt with this beautiful place. The Cheeky Llama Cafe has very good food and Coffee. The people who walk round this park are so friendly.
J.Amazing kids playground, mini water park, rose gardens, tennis courts, even have golf course! This place really live up to its name as the Queen's Park
G.Built from park trees that had come down or taken down from storms.
Interesting art forms but some images that could scare young children.
Also children need to take care of pieces of sharp timber.
G.Great place to see most farm animals in a town and great for getting a snack or coffee at the cafe but I wish the pool was running all year round
P.Take off your shoes and walk through the roses's garden
D.Ots always been a favorite for my family to visit. Even more so now that junior the big orange cat frequents there.
M.Lovely big gardens to walk around and enjoy some fresh air. Popular place for dog walkers, so plenty of floofs to say hello to.
A.Looking great with Spring flowers and blossom.
D.This has to be one of New Zealand's best city parks, there's stunning gardens but most importantly for the kids there's a plaground area and splash zone which kids went crazy for. Also a Woodland animals area with everything from rabbits to Wallabies - totally unexpected also there is a museum and two cafes and kids play castle there is also a "fitness track" that allows you to enjoy all kinds of physical activities, including machine assisted ones. On a nice day a must see.
N.This Park is a beautiful place and a credit to the City Council staff that maintain it. It has so many treasures for all ages and it is so accessible for everyone
