Poppet Head Park
Nice little park for a stopover to have a meal. There’s a BBQ and dining area, kids play area and restrooms.

Nice facilities with a BBQ, kids park and toilets but broken glass was a shame to see from a Jack Daniels bottle through the seating area. Watch out under foot.

Poppet Head Park
Great park with good facilities. Kids playground is fairly well appointed. You need to get there early on weekends as it's a popular free party venue..... first come first served. There is a concrete path around the park that is good for riding or walking. The poppet head is a remnant of the past local mining industry.

Beautiful park demonstrates rich mining history and priceless community effort. Great picnic facilities, with fantastic view while having your picnic. The amenities are complete and convenient. Lots of options in the sail-covered playground for kids from different age group. Will definitely revisit soon!

Poppet Head Park
Very family friendly. The playground is a good size and is well shaded. The toilets are well located and the adjacent picnic tables are under cover. The site is encircled by a concrete path that kids can use to ride their bikes or scooters.The information board about the old Aberdare Central Colliery, on which the whole site is built, is dilapidated and in desperate need of repair. The grounds immediately around the Poppet Head are overgrown and the historic piece of mining infrastructure is neglected. It doesn't appear the conservation efforts have progressed since the original work 30 years ago.

Netty. Was. Here. Expansive park beside the Kitchener Dam. Free BBQ plate and plenty of picnic tables with playground for the little ones. Standing tall in the background is the Poppet Head Mine Pit where the Pit Pones used to work.
