Correction (10 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 9 October 2026.
Looking for a gym in Kew East? We could not verify one as trading, so this page does not list one. What we could confirm is two council parks where outdoor fitness and sport are on the council’s own lists.
The two places are Stradbroke Park in Kew East and Victoria Park in Kew, just over the border. Each was checked against OpenStreetMap and a Boroondara council page. That makes this a thin page, and we would rather say so than pad it with places we could not stand behind.
The council pages we read print no prices and no opening hours for either park, so none are stated here. Check the council pages before you go.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Sportsgrounds and athletics track | Stradbroke Park | 1369 Burke Road, Kew East |
| Seniors exercise park, skate park | Victoria Park | 450 High St, Kew |
Stradbroke Park — 1369 Burke Road, Kew East VIC 3102
Stradbroke Park, at 1369 Burke Road, is a sporting park first. The council says it is suitable for athletics, soccer, AFL, cricket and outdoor fitness training, and lists two sportsgrounds (one synthetic and one natural turf), cricket nets with three lanes, a grass athletics track and change rooms with showers. One caveat: the council also says Stradbroke Park South is closed for the 2026/27 summer season, so check its page before planning a session there. The council describes the park as an off-lead dog park outside organised sport, so read the signs on the day.
Home ground: the council names athletics, soccer, AFL and cricket among the uses here, with two sportsgrounds and three-lane cricket nets on its list.
Victoria Park — 450 High St, Kew VIC 3101
Victoria Park is at 450 High St in Kew, not Kew East, so treat it as the next suburb over. The council describes it as a large open space with plenty of sports facilities, and says a dedicated seniors exercise park was built in 2022. Its facilities list names a basketball half-court and a BMX and skate park, and the playground is classed as a regional playground.
Get involved: start with the council’s Victoria Park page for the seniors exercise park, which also points to a separate council page of off-lead dog park rules.
