Battery Park is a new urban park that forms the gateway to the V&A Waterfront, integrating Cape Town’s CBD and the V&A Waterfront through a series of pedestrian routes. There is a lot to do, and what makes it even more special is the amazing backdrop of Table Mountain. Visitors to the park are able to engage in a range of outdoor recreation, entertainment and retail activities in various levels of public spaces. The site is also of archaeological importance as it still contains the rear ramparts of the historical Amsterdam Battery, one of the oldest structures in Cape Town.
Skate & Scooter Park and Multi-Court
In a bid to make Battery Park accessible and interesting for all ages, there's a free public skate and scooter park. It is the first skate park of this quality built within the city to world class skate park standards using lightweight construction. Also, the multi-court is suitable for general basketball and or mini soccer games during the week or weekends. With adjustable hoops this makes it accessible for younger players.
