Bicentennial Park is an old favourite with many locals who know it as Mount Chelsea. The park is located on Scotch Parade, Chelsea (Mel Ref: 93 E12) and features a regional play space, kilometres of walking trails with links to the Long Beach Trail and the Chelsea Netball Centre.
The new play space with lots of whimsical and fun elements for all ages was completed in December, 2010. There are two big mound slides which are the centre piece of the play space. Pick your slide depending on how much excitement you want. Next to the slides is a Smurf village with a music hut, story hut and play hut complete with a mooing cow in the middle of the village. This playground also features a Liberty Swing for people with mobility difficuties.
Other elements include sculptural gardens, a shaded sand pit, Tinkerbelle sand pit, a giant basket swing, hammock, Mount Chelsea Express train, huge green grasshopper and bee springers, stand-on spinners, spiral slide, clock panel, rope climbing frame, stepping stones, rowing boat on rocker, chain traverse, tic-tac-toe, monkey bars, flying fox, wooden structure with various ladders and dual wave slides, circle set at an angle which revolves around and revolving lotus leaf with hand wheel.
