Located just five minutes from Wodonga Holiday Park, Sumsion Gardens is a local favourite for morning strolls, relaxed picnics, and family playtime. Nestled around a tranquil lake with shady lawns and walking paths, it’s the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the outdoors.
Relax by the Lake
Take an easy lap around the central lake and watch ducks glide across the water while native trees sway overhead. The flat paths are great for all fitness levels and pram-friendly, making it an ideal choice for families or a relaxed afternoon walk.
Picnic and Play
Pack a picnic or grab takeaway from one of Wodonga’s nearby cafés and enjoy lunch under the gum trees. With BBQ facilities, playground equipment, and open green spaces, Sumsion Gardens offers everything you need for a lazy, peaceful afternoon.
Spot the Locals
Keep your eyes peeled for local birdlife — pelicans, cockatoos, and even the occasional kookaburra. The gardens are especially beautiful at sunrise or sunset when the water glows with warm, golden light.
Plan Your Visit
There’s plenty of parking nearby, and the gardens connect easily to walking tracks that link into Wodonga’s wider path network. Whether you’re starting your day or winding it down, Sumsion Gardens is the perfect place to slow your pace.
