About The Lakes Reserve Outdoor Gym

The Lakes Reserve Outdoor Gym is a free, council-style outdoor fitness space set within the parkland at Chichester Drive in Taylors Lakes. Spread across the reserve on either side of a popular playground and shelters, it gives the local community an open-air alternative to an indoor gym, with several distinct workout zones to move between under the open sky.

The setup is unusually generous for an outdoor facility, blending traditional fitness stations with a genuine challenge circuit. Alongside familiar gear like a chest press, leg press, rowing machine, elliptical and sit-up benches, there is an Altima challenge area and a full ninja-style obstacle course featuring monkey bars, balance beams, a climbing wall with nets and hurdle bars. A basketball court and table tennis round out the offering, making it as much a play-and-train destination as a workout spot.

Because it sits beside the playground and shelters, the reserve works well for families who want to exercise while children play nearby, and for locals after a no-cost, no-membership way to stay active. With equipment for strength, cardio, balance and agility all in one parkland setting, it is a versatile option for Taylors Lakes residents of all fitness levels.
