About

Established in 1863, this 85-hectare park anchors Pietermaritzburg's reputation as the 'Garden City,' with jacaranda-lined lawns, a rose garden, rockeries, and a Victorian-era Chinese-style pavilion once used as a bandstand. Picnic and braai areas sit alongside swimming and soccer facilities, and an adjoining cricket oval serves as home ground for the KwaZulu-Natal Inland Cricket Union. The Msunduzi River, route of the well-known Dusi Canoe Marathon, runs along the park's edge.
