Located just beside Canberra MRT Station, on the opposite side of Canberra Plaza, the Canberra Vista playgrounds offers a fun and rare play experience for kids and families.
Canberra Vista Playground: Roller Slides on the Slopes
The most striking of the multiple Canberra Vista playgrounds can be found hidden behind Block 378 where the preschool is located.
This green coloured playground is built into the sloping terrain.

JURONG EAST SWIMMING COMPLEX: Family-friendly Splash Pad, Lazy River and Wave Pool
Here, kids can make their way up a series of stepping stones, with the help of climbing ropes, to reach the top of the slope.
The main attraction at the top is the chance to take one of two roller slides for a fast ride back down to the bottom of the hill. It is slippery for sure! These roller slides are similar to those found at Admiralty Park and offer a fun way to get back down.
There is also a basket swing for those who just wish to hang out at the top of the slope.
Another fun way to get back down to the base of the slope is to go through the obstacles that stretch from the top of the hill and end in a slide at the bottom.
This fun Canberra Vista playground also reminds use of the playground built into the slope at Toa Payoh Crest – another fun play spot for kids.
Sheltered Playground in front of Block 378
Younger kids can also head to the small sheltered Canberra Vista playground in front of Block 378.
We do wish that the tarp providing the shelter above the playground was larger though.
More Canberra Vista Playgrounds for Younger Kids
Young ones actually have more choice when it comes to playgrounds at Canberra Vista.
There is a small playground with a basket swing inbetween Blocks 380C and 379A.
Yet another playground for the younger age group can be found at Block 376.
Tower Playground (Currently Closed)
Another Canberra Vista playground, this one for the older kids, can be found between Blocks 377A and 377B.
The main feature here is a tower playground. However, it was closed for some safety updates when we visited it in April 2026. Parents, do remind your older kids to make proper use of the playground equipment for their own safety!
However, there is still a tub merry-go-round here. And if you look closely, you will discover that there is a place for parents to place their mobile phone so that they can shoot a selfie video of their kids enjoying the ride.
Nature Play Area (Not Yet Open)
Another spot at Canberra Vista that was still closed when we visited but we think will be nice to visit once it opens is just beside the MRT Station.
This is a nature play area where kids and families can enjoy a quick dose of nature and play.
