May I ask was it closed back then or still open? did the owners know you were sleeping there? use to be a caravan park on the outer edge I think from memory?
I remember going there as a kid to drive the karts, but they were never running- I also remember paddle boats on the lake but always tied up... Place always had a bit of smell about it, was pretty much empty most times & was run down & dilapidated... This was back in late 80's & had been like that for some time before it shut- even before Wonderland opening up... There's another one on a much smaller block IN Warragamba itself, opposite the Lion Park's block- good luck getting in though & not getting busted! :v ;)
Where the ginger meggs sign was, that was the stage that used to back onto the giant slide, if you are curious as to where the slide used to be. I heard it mysteriously disappeared one night, but who knows......
13:20 FCN Fairfield Community News Your Local Community News Paper. I think it became the Champion News Paper or they brought it out. 17:40 was the Woman's toilet block 18:00 was a food and convenience spot near the picnic area.20:00 was a little creek that ran past the picnic area the fence in the distance from you was the boundary fence. I would have to add that it's been some time since I worked and enjoyed the location. I was a what you might call a team rover an information person. 24:00 you found the Grand Prix Go Cart Trak little 20cc go carts used to use be driven on it.
Omg yesterday I was there at night time with my mates and we wetness a lot of things happened while we were there the shit we heard it was insane like no joke that place is haunted at night time we heard a little kid calling out for his mum and we heard a deep laugh it sounded like a demon we we’re running you should go there at night time and apparently you can hear a lady singing there the song oh oh oh it’s magic you know
It was haunted back in the 90s. The story was there was a kid who drowned or something? And they couldn't leave. So they were seen on rides and stuff. I remember this girl pretending to be a ghost to get ahead in ride lines.😅
Was this place near Fairfield. I'm thinking of another place i believe was called Adventure Land or something like that and I think it may have been out near Liverpool but I cant quite remember. Can someone clear this up for me please?
Ok cool. But I seem to remember another place in the area called Adventureland but it may have been one and the same place. My memory isnt that good and I'm going bach about 45 years.
Wow. I used to sleep in my car there for months when I was homeless around 89. Can remember going there as a kid with my parents. Thanks for posting.

MrLou061 same here, my dad was a train driver back then!!
My dad was Desmond Newell...he worked for the railways at Clyde burn....worked 32 years there....done a number of Xmas parties at the magic kingdom
OMG My husband & myself were literally talking about this place the other day. 💕👍🏻💕

I loved coming here when I was 7 years old with my family
I remember playing in that boot. The whole area was flat and cleared.
We loved this place and the African Lion Safari….”it’s scary, but nobody cares”
aww all those places are gone NO!
I used to love going there. Although the shoe was always scary, even back then!

Great stuff thank you. It brings back wonderful memories.
I was just about to say........Dude, look out for snakes! You beat me to it.
I’ve got photos of my visit there when I was tiny, Wonderland killed it apparently.
Wonderland shat on it for days , But it was good for the people in liverpool etc , Save us traveling all the way out to eastern creek
Loved this place as a kid

I remember when this was completely flooded I was so disappointed I couldn’t go in
An old TV ad for this pace is on UA-cam.
"Woah, woah, it's magic!"
.
In 1986 and I think around 1990 the George’s River which is nearby flooded from torrential rain and naturally the place got swamped as well.
its prospect creek.
Spewin' I never went here ..... I hate seeing places like this all run down and let to rot away in the weather - very sad indeed.
Cool vid!
I was only around there a year or so ago. I was working so I didn’t have time to check it out.
What a shame they let this place go, it was a great place for kids and abit of history as well
Oh oh oh it’s magic, you knowwww
You go Warren mate i'd been to this place as a kid place like this closed down because of the higher insurances
Yeah Australia Wonderland and that they had flooding there the pushed up there insurance to the stage they couldn't keep it open any longer

This is in Lansvale

aussiedave1962 Adventureland was located on Camden Valley way, just outside Liverpool in what is now called Edmunson Park.
Thank you scoot. I had a feeling there was a place like that out that way somewhere. Do you happen to know how long it was there and when it closed?
aussiedave1962 don’t know exactly how long I was there, but I can remember going there as a kid in the 70’s...believe it closed about 20 years ago.
The information booth belongs to modern times. More likely ticket sales booth.
