Review & FAQ:
If you and your family enjoy the unusual and eclectic, you are sure to enjoy a visit to Sparky Park, where a disused electricity sub-station’s grounds have been transformed into a quirky little public park adorned with imaginative art installations. Local artist Berthold Haas was commissioned to transform the disused eye-sore into a serene and peaceful place where people can some to relax. Using a collection of bits and pieces, the artist has created a fantasy garden with a brilliant grotto for children to explore. If you visit on a good day you are welcome to bring along a picnic to enjoy in the park.
