Outdoor gym?

[SallyBeck]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is an outdoor gym in any local parks in or around Dulwich or Peckham? Stuff like monkey bars, cross-trainer etc?

Thanks

Sal

Dulwich park.

Peckham Rye - just next to the duck pond ..........

And another small set recently appeared in Brimmington Park, next to the Old Kent Road Aldi.

Oh cool, thanks! Someone else told me there might be one on Peckham Rye but I couldn't find it.

Do any of you guys use it? I'm guessing it gets busy when the suns out!

what someone described as the duck pond is, in fact, a rather nice lake and home to may species including a splendid heron

The set in Brimington Park is newer and nicer (and further away).

Not used them much, but I found the Peckham Rye Park one less used than the Dulwich Park one, and neither of them busy.

Here's Southwark's list of outdoor gyms http://www.southwark.gov.uk/info/200435/free_outdoor_activities/2611/outdoor_gyms,

and details of individual exercisers http://www.southwark.gov.uk/downloads/200087/sports_and_leisure, though I don't know how up-to-date they are.

There is also one in Burgess park and brockwell.

Excellent. Thanks very much ianr & rahrahrah, I shall have to explore.

They look so fun I thought I'd give it a go!
