Coburg Lake Reserve

The park provides a quiet place to have a picnic and walk around the lake and along the Merri Creek Trail. It has a range of facilities, including three play spaces, an outdoor gym and a contemplative garden.

This beautiful scenic reserve is near the old Pentridge Prison (active until 1999), bordered by Sydney Road, Newlands Road and Gaffney Street. It’s only about ten minutes drive or a tram ride from the city.
