Denman Prospect is an exciting new suburb in the picturesque Molonglo Valley of Canberra, ACT, Australia. This thoughtfully designed community will feature a range of amenities, including Denman Village shops, a community center, schools, parks, and playgrounds, ensuring connection and recreation.
Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy nearby walking trails and a cutting-edge skate park, along with attractions at the renowned Stromlo Forest Park. A centerpiece of the development is the innovative Stromlo Reach Pump Track & Snake Run, designed for beginner and intermediate riders. Both features, constructed from durable asphalt, ensure lasting enjoyment.
The snake run starts from an elevated platform and winds down to the pump track, filled with engaging elements. Inspired by Aboriginal artist Wally Bell, the pump track showcases beautiful artwork representing interconnected water holes.
Its design sets it apart, allowing riders to choose their own paths for a truly unique experience. Plus, the snake run lets riders easily loop back to the top of the hill for another exciting ride. Denman Prospect promises a vibrant, active lifestyle for all its residents.
