The Esplanade picnic area is situated along the banks of the beautiful Derwent River.

This area features a combination of open space and serves as a venue for outdoor events throughout the year. The picnic area is located within a fenced playground and includes two sheltered BBQ areas equipped with accessible electric BBQs.

There are four accessible BBQ tables available: one in each of the covered shelters and one at each end of the walking track, closest to the parking areas.

There are public toilets, a fenced, sensory playground, and outdoor gym equipment for use.
