The Look Out Play Area in Bracknell is one of our favourite parks to visit in Berkshire. The play area is set in a woodland in Swinley Forest, it has wonderful play equipment, which is predominantly wooden. The playground is large but divided into three adjoined areas; the first area nearest to the car park is an inclusive play area with lots of equipment suitable for children with additional needs. The middle play area is aimed at 3-6 year olds and the final play area is suitable for children aged 7-11 years.
What play equipment is there?
There is loads to do at The Look Out Play Area. For the older children there is an impressive wooden castle, which in effect is a large climbing frame on different levels. There are obstacle course equipment and swings for all ages around the site.
In the middle section, aimed at 3-6 year olds of the play area you will find obstacle courses, climbing frames, a wonderful wooden ship with slide, a wooden red train and carriage, trampoline and so much more.
In the inclusive area there are more swings, roundabout, a raised climbing frame / platform with metal slide, mirrors, musical toys and more.
The play area is a wonderful environment with plenty to discover and no longer needs to be booked.
