Discover Noble Park

Discover Noble Park through movement, art and stories from the past. Ross Reserve brings together sports and community facilities, while an interactive walking tour connects attractions and art installations with stories about the past. There are also the Pudding Lanterns in Copas Park and the meaning behind the street name Muderra Way. These different points of interest can help you tailor your stay to your travel group’s interests.

Ross Reserve: Play, Sport and Open Spaces

Located in central Noble Park, Ross Reserve brings together several specific options in one place: two playgrounds, three sports fields, a sealed athletics track and Noble Park Skate Park. There are also large, publicly accessible open spaces. Barbecue and picnic facilities are nearby. This makes it easy to plan whether you’d rather spend time in open spaces, on the sports facilities or at the playgrounds.

The two playgrounds can provide a specific starting point for planning your day. The sports fields and track add more sports-related options, while the skate park has its own distinct focus. The open spaces also give the reserve a different character from a plan centred only on individual sporting activities. Which of these options matters to your stay depends on what you’d like to do together.

Ross Reserve is also home to the Ross Reserve Athletics Facility. It is certified to World Athletics Certificate II standards and can host a range of athletics events and activities. This makes it a dedicated point of interest for travellers who are interested in athletics. If you’re planning to take part in an event or activity, check current booking options in advance.

Explore Noble Park on an Interactive Walking Tour

Maptivate offers an interactive, guided walking tour of Noble Park. Art installations, stories from the past and local attractions are among the digital tour’s themes. The walking tour offers a different way to engage with the area than spending time on Ross Reserve’s sports and play areas: the focus here is on the content and stops along the route. The digital tour content may be updated, so check the latest information if you have a particular stop in mind.

The combination of themes gives you different ways to plan your day without having to fit everything into a single activity. Those mainly interested in sport can use Ross Reserve as a starting point for planning; those drawn to art and local stories can make the Maptivate tour their main focus. This way, you can choose the focus based on your interests rather than following a set order.

Art and Language as Distinctive Discoveries

The Pudding Lanterns are in Copas Park: large community lanterns housing a rotating gallery of small artworks. The works on display change over time. This makes the installation an artistic highlight whose gallery is not permanently the same. If you’re interested in public art, this changing collection is a special reason to include the Pudding Lanterns in your discoveries.

A street name also tells a story of cultural knowledge: Muderra Way means “heavy rain” in the Bunurong language. The name offers a different way to discover Noble Park than through its sports facilities or artworks: by exploring the meaning of a place name and the language it comes from. Together with the walking tour and the Pudding Lanterns, it offers a selection of different themes to guide your exploration.
