Apex Park is located near the Ovens River and can be easily accessed from the city centre through the Sir Thomas Mitchell Bridge that leads to Parfitt Road from the central Wangaratta Road.
This park is perfect for a family day out or get-together due to its vast grassland area. It is equipped with picnic tables, barbecues, a children’s play area, a parkour play space, toilets, showers, and tourism information boards.
The Murray to Mountains Rail Trail officially starts from Apex Park, which is a wonderful, sealed road for cyclists to travel towards Bright and other towns in North East Victoria. Additionally, it is the starting and finishing point for the Wangaratta parkrun, which is conducted every Saturday morning.
The park is also frequently used for markets and show ‘n’ shine events.
However, please note that in winter/spring, the park may be subject to flooding.
