Telford Picnic Ground (Braeside Park)

Telford Picnic Ground is a great destination for a family day out, it provides mown open grass areas in a semi natural setting. Stop by the Visitor Centre and adventure playground or spend the afternoon picnicing utilising the barbecues, toilets and tables provided. Feel immersed in nature whilst exploring the 16km of easy gravel walking and bicycle trails. Hidden within the park are tree sculptures of native wildlife and keep an eye out for cheeky local birdlife camoflaged amongst the tall gum trees.

Due to the proximity to Moorabbin Airport, model planes and drones are not permitted. Braeside Park closes at dusk, however there is an after hours exit gate located at Lower Dandenong Road and a 24 hour carpark at Carpark Number 1.
