Why it's worth checking out
Burnley Park is a spacious riverside park in Richmond, covering more than six hectares along the Yarra Boulevard. Its grounds overlook the Yarra River and sit close to Bridge Road and Swan Street, making it a practical spot to visit while exploring this part of Melbourne.
The park has plenty of open space for kicking a footy around, along with a sporting oval and pavilion, a basketball court, playground, picnic areas and public toilets. A formal barbecue area provides a place for an outdoor meal, while the broad grounds can suit families, casual groups and anyone looking for room to move. The park is wheelchair accessible.
Burnley Park also includes a designated dog off-leash area. Dogs cannot enter playgrounds, and they must be kept on-leash near sporting grounds and playgrounds when the relevant areas are in use or nearby. The sporting ground can be booked for soccer or cricket, and personal trainers may use the site with a permit. A Corroborree Tree acknowledges the area's significance to Aboriginal people, adding an important cultural reference to the park's open recreational setting.
