Set at the entrance to the park, the Timber Tumbles Playground a fun adventure play area suitable for children aged 2-14 year-olds. The playground reflects the coal-mining theme of the local area and includes a mini zip-wire, climbing wall, swings and slide.

The playground was designed following extensive consultation with local children and incorporates a mining theme to reflect Castlecomer’s rich coal mining heritage e.g. a truck cart, tunnel conveyor belt, amphibian creature etc.

The playground uses Robina wood and other natural materials to fit with the wooded setting.

The Timber Tumbles Playground is owned and managed by Kilkenny County Council. All children using the playground must be supervised by an adult at all times.
