Additional Information

The site features several different surfaces: interlocking pavers, asphalt, and grass. The surface is slightly uneven in a few places (holes in the asphalt). At one point along the path, there are loose rubber mats covering wires, but they are heavy enough to stay in place, although they do create a small 2cm step.
In the second section of the park, the kiosks are located on the asphalt path, while pedestrian traffic uses the grass (which is fairly uniform and relatively hard, but can become waterlogged in bad weather conditions).
The fountains/water filling stations have a foot pump mechanism.
