This area is right next door to Stockroute Park steps from the park and on top of the Ribs and Rumps Restaurant. It's mainly used by lunchtime office workers as there are no benches inside the park. I like it because I can just look at Stockroute Park while having take-out. It has shades along the entire structure.
It's a lovely promenade to see things and be seen. I normally enter from Amalfi Drive or from Bennelong Parkway near the Archery Centre to access the promenade. It's sundrenched and can get hot but there's a nice breeze from the Parramatta River. You have unimpeded views of Rhodes from across the river and also the shipwrecks that are visible in this area. I think it's a place to use early morning or late afternoon and evening to appreciate the lights sparkling on the river as there are no shaded structures to escape the sun. I was surprised that the promenade doesn't go all the way through as it ends abruptly at a construction site!
This car park has probably less than 50 car spaces for private vehicles and authorised permit holders. It's next to the bus stop and less than a minute's walk to the Archery centre. I noticed that there's a donation bin at the other end near the Bennelong Parkway Bridge.
This water-feature fountain highlights the Bicentennial Park area of the Treillage Tower. It frames the tower with a promenade of Planes trees on both sides. There are different sizes of water fountains spouting water vertically at different intervals. There's also a wading pool at the beginning of the water feature with one fountain spouting taller vertical water. I find that the best way to appreciate this water feature is to view it from the top level of the Treillage Tower. I love seeing children splashing about in this fountain area during warm months. There's a playground nearby (Bicentennial West Playspace), Off-Leash Dog Park, and the Hill Pavilion picnic and barbecue area. This water feature can be enjoyed by all.
This pedestrian bridge was once a wooden bridge and has now been updated (and authorised vehicles only) I normally use it to cross the Badu Mangroves from the Education Centre to Rhodes. It also connects to the access track to the Billabong.
