    Hi All,

    I have a one year old and he's starting to get old enough that he likes to go on swings for a little while while out on a walk.

    I know there's a small park in ballybrack and in shanganagh park in shankill, is there any others or playgrounds around the area?

    Thanks

    Peoples Park has swings suitable. But for the Rolls Royce experience, Marley Park has a selection of playgrounds.

    Do you mean kilbogett park, at seapoint rugby club & cabinteely GAA? if not they have one there, I think with those enclosed swing seats that their legs fit through. There are also ducks there now with a good area for kids to feed them, they come right up on the bank, theres a bench to sit there too. There are ducks in cabinteely park too.

    Cabinteely Park has a very similar selection to Marlay, and would be much closer for the OP.

    I'd vouch for cabinteely, but I have really fond memories of being brought to Marlay as a kid. The park kicked ass.
