Hidden in the depth, this Sports Paradise, with only few visitors is a perfect place for working out, or just having fun with friends. ใ€Œ้‚Šๆœ‰ๅ’ๅคง้šป่›คไนธ้šจ่ก—่ทณใ€๏ผŒaccessing this sacred heaven takes some price. A long walk up to the mountain, and turning into the narrow and eerily-lit concrete path scaling up the hill will lead you to this unbeatable land of sports.

๐Ÿ† Family Action Verdict

Best for active families with kids aged 5 and up who can manage the 200m uphill walk. The grass football pitch and running track suit mixed-age groups. Families with strollers or very young toddlers will find the steep trail a firm barrier.

โ„น๏ธ What to Know Before You Go

๐Ÿ’กWear supportive shoes โ€” the paved trail is steep and can be slippery after rain
โฐBring water and a picnic to make the most of the grassy lawn at the top
๐ŸŽŸ๏ธVisit on weekday mornings for the emptiest courts and freshest air

โ€œThis playground built on top of a service reservoir is very popular with the locals. It's relatively quiet yet still very accessible. To get here, you need to climb a steep but paved trail for about 200m. It has a football pitch, a jogging track, and a toilet and changing room. The grassy lawn can be a convenient picnic spot.โ€

โ€œGreat park hidden away atop the mountain. A bit of a walk to get to but that's not a problem if you're coming to exercise. Sports facilities include basketball court, football pitch (grass and hardcourt), running track and exercise equipment. There are also drinking fountains, toilets and changing rooms.โ€

โ€œNot very far from the city, it's on the mountain and less crowded so you can enjoy fresh air and have fun by playing in the sports courtโ€
