From thrilling river expeditions to exciting splash missions, Palmy is the ultimate haven for families seeking endless entertainment.
Kickstart your day with a scenic ride along the picturesque Manawatū River pathway, making pit stops at the exhilarating pump tracks. Feel the wind in your hair as you pedal your way to the Albert Street forts – a hidden wonderland nestled among the trees. It's a child's paradise, featuring forts, flying foxes, and climbing walls that offer endless opportunities for play.
Cap off your adventures with a visit to one of our premier parks. Memorial Park takes centre stage with its all-ages splashpad boasting the only free supersoaker in the southern hemisphere – a colossal bucket that tips water for the ultimate aquatic thrill. Watch your kids revel in the poppy-themed playground, zoom down slides, and run wild in a water wonderland.
For the thrill-seekers, head to the Lido, where daring slides will put your courage to the test. Conquer the Super Bowl as it spins around the outside before plunging into the unknown. Craving speed? Take on our speedslide, a descent that promises super speeds and pure exhilaration.
