Keurboom Park, Recreation park in Rondebosch, South Africa.
Keurboom Park is a recreation area in Rondebosch featuring two separate children's play zones, outdoor exercise equipment, and designated dog-friendly sections. Ponds and streams flow through the grounds, creating habitats for local wildlife.
The park takes its name from an original Keurboom estate that once occupied the area. A 2003 tree-planting initiative brought back more than 200 native keurboom trees to restore the landscape.
The park serves as a gathering point where neighbors naturally come together during weekends, especially families enjoying outdoor time. The yearly November market reflects how the space has become woven into the local community's social rhythm.
The park sits near Newlands Rugby and Cricket Fields and stays open year-round for visitors. Different areas for children, dogs, and adults are clearly separated, making it easy to find what suits your needs.
The park hosted the 2012 African Cross Country Championships, where runners competed over distances ranging from 6 to 12 kilometers. This international sporting event highlighted the grounds' ability to stage major competitions.
