Australia’s largest Park Warrior obstacle course proves popular in Joondalup

The City of Joondalup has recently become home to Western Australia’s first, and Australia’s largest, Park Warrior open space obstacle course from a_space.

The innovative course, located near to Whitfords Nodes Beach in Joondalup, has been introduced with a focus on getting teens from the local community more active.

The City of Joondalup has a great selection of play spaces catering for children up to 12, although prior to this new installation those aged 12 to 18 years had been left out. Since its opening, the course has been inundated with teenagers and young adults keen to tackle the large variety of obstacles and to compete against their friends.

The course offers 16 obstacles many of which are inspired by those seen on the popular Australia Ninja Warrior television series.

One of Australia Ninja Warrior champions, Chris White, has already put the Whitfords Node Park Warrior course to the test on 9 News Perth.

As a result, he commented that “to have a public course where kids can just come down and try it out for free - it’s awesome! We’ll have so many good ninjas in the future.”

Adding dimension to the course, a_space has designed an app to enable users to record and save their times and for Council to run organised events.

In preparation for these, Council has constructed a winners podium.

Australian designed, manufactured and installed by a_ space, each Park Warrior obstacle is the result of painstaking research and user testing.

The equipment is constructed from high-quality durable materials suitable for coastal environments.
