About

Mitchell Park sits in Durban's Morningside suburb on the site of a former ostrich farm dating back to 1910. The grounds combine floral lawns and picnic spots with a small municipal zoo and aviary, home to birds, tortoises, and other small animals, plus a quiet tea garden and a children's playground. It has long been a favourite for family outings, though recent visitor reviews describe parts of the grounds as poorly maintained. No pet policy is publicly confirmed.
