The Canopy, Lane Cove

The Canopy is such an easy one because you get play, food, shops and parking in the same place. The main playground structure is better suited to older kids, but little ones still have trampolines, a rocking pirate ship and a little slide.

There’s open grass with giant picnic chairs and loads of cafes and restaurants around the precinct. There are around 500 underground parking spaces with lifts straight up to the park, plus Coles, Aldi and a parents room and toilets beside the playground.
