Playgrounds & Family Facilities

Kupittaa Park is one of Turku's best family destinations because several facilities for different ages sit within the same area. The city-run Kupittaanlahte playground lies along the Kupittaankatu pedestrian avenue near the park's western end. Nearby are the Adventure Park (Seikkailupuisto), run by the children's culture centre Färi, and the traffic park where children practise road rules in miniature.

Kupittaanlahte playground

Address: Kupittaankatu 2, 20520 Turku. The playground sits along the pedestrian avenue from the start of Kupittaankatu, with city-run supervised play activities on weekday mornings. Outside those hours the equipment stays available like elsewhere in the park, and the area is open and free.

Adventure Park (Seikkailupuisto)

Run by the children's culture centre Färi in the southern part of the park on the former gardening-school grounds. Designed for children and families; Färi organises activities year-round for early-education groups and schools. Opening hours vary by season – check Färi's pages.

Traffic park

The traffic park teaches children road rules in a safe environment: miniature routes can be ridden on balance bikes or pedal cars. It has its own website and opening hours; check in advance.

Bird pond and open lawns

The bird pond is a highlight, with a viewing path and benches. Open lawns suit ball games and picnics; the flat path is easy with a pram. A public toilet is in the park.
