Williams Park is a park in Alicetown, Lower Hutt, with a Google rating of 4.5.
A good local park gives people room to do different things at once: open grass for games, a path for walking or pushing a pram, and somewhere to sit out of the wind. When choosing one, look at shade, drainage and whether it is set back from the road, especially with small children or a dog. Regulars know that parks near the harbour and river can be breezy, so a spare layer is worth packing, that grass stays soft for a day or two after heavy rain, and that early mornings and weekday afternoons are the quietest times. Bring water, take your rubbish home, and check signs for dog rules.
For people in Alicetown and around Lower Hutt, Williams Park is a well-rated green space close to home.
