Picnic DRC Jo'burg

Clean, tranquil, and large with ample benches and seating if there on a weekday. Its nice to get lost in the view, watching the geese swim about and interact with each other. There are boat rides available, but the office to rent then out seems to be closed during the week. Its a nice space to have a picnic.

Where can you find a better place to enjoy a stroll on a Sunday morning - or even for a Myrun 2.5km or 5km. After the walk, enjoy the calmness of water birds swimming and flying over the lake. You can even enjoy a trip on a rowing boat!!

I literally come here to swim..sometimes I take a walk...the pool is in this classic style structure that takes you right out of the city and the pool is visited by a whole lot of eclectic guests. The park is great too if you don't go on the weekend when it's a huge party

Beautiful views and a very calming atmosphere, the Zoo lake offers the office staff a place to wind down after a long day, the fitness fanatic a place to get those endorphins pumping and the family man a place to run with the kids. Definitely a recommended clean, safe area.

I had an amazing outing at Zoolake Park. I have been there many years ago, revisiting it a week ago made me feel even more excited. Enjoyed my walks, picnicking, playing on the green grass. This beautiful place brought immense memories of my past. My hilight was canoeing with my precious family, thou one has past on. But our special memories brought alot of Joy and comfort. I will recommend this place to everyone as we have such unforgettable memorable experiences there. Our pics will tell you more. Will definitely be back soon.

Thoroughly enjoyed it here. Safe and secure. Didn't get to do all the activities so will return for a boat ride.

Always fun times. The basketball courts are some of the most well maintained public courts in the country. Tip, the Coach when you get there he takes care of that place.

This place is phenomenal. It literally turns strangers into acquaintances so quickly and effortlessly. The vibe is just amazing

Zoo lake is a great place to walk around and enjoy nature. Buy a bag of bread and spend your time making some duck friends. The lake water is dirty and the restaurant is completely abandoned, but the gardens are well kept

It's always awesome going to Zoo Lake. The atmosphere was great. I mostly appreciate the cleanliness of the garden and the dam. The braai area is always maintained okay however they need to improve on their ablution facilities esp the females.
