The old Seymour Skatepark has been removed and all that is left is a concrete slab. However, the New Seymour Skatepark can be found at the car park for the Seymour Sports and Aquatic Centre (in Pollard Street). This Skatepark, built-in 2014 by Oasis skate parks, came as a huge surprise and is a massive upgrade from its predecessor. Seymour Skatepark features a large bowl with hip and spine. The bowl, which has a maximum depth of 5 ft, features two perfectly shaped mini ramps (one 4 ft and one 5 ft deep) with spine connecting the two.
The skatepark also has a street section that is less exiting but has everything you need including quarters, banks, boxes, decks, ledges as well as flat and down rails. This skatepark is only a few minutes off the Hume HWY and is definitely worth stretching your legs for.
The park also has a small sheltered area with drinking tap and is located within the larger Chittick Park, which is a nice grassy area in which to take the Guinea Pig for a stroll.
