Pakapakanthi /Victoria Park (Park 16)

Pakapakanthi / Victoria Park (Park 16) is part of Adelaide’s extensive Park Lands network, the city’s open green space of 29 parks and six squares. Located in Adelaide CBD, it offers an easy way to step away from the built-up city and spend time outdoors.

The wider Park Lands are intended for both activity and downtime, with the City of Adelaide listing opportunities such as sport, exercise, trails and picnics among the ways people can enjoy them. The broader network also includes features ranging from playspaces and gardens to running tracks, tennis courts and golf courses, although the supplied information does not confirm which facilities are available specifically at Park 16.

Its appeal is its setting within Adelaide’s planned “city in a park”, a layout recognised on the National Heritage List. It suits visitors looking for open-air recreation, a quiet break or a place to meet others close to the CBD. For families, groups, walkers and solo visitors, it provides a starting point for exploring the wider Park Lands; check the City of Adelaide’s current park information for site-specific facilities and access details.
