Playground
Gloucester Gate Playground
A natural-materials playground redesigned in 2019-20 with a 50-metre zip wire, climbing structures, sand and water play, zoned so the gentlest equipment sits in the middle. Wheelchair-accessible bridges and raised sand and water tables make it one of the more inclusive Royal Parks play spaces. Handy before or after London Zoo.
