Strathalbyn Soldiers Memorial Gardens in the centre of Strathalbyn are an excellent place to enjoy a picnic lunch while feeding the resident ducks. This lawned open space area is beautifully presented with gardens of roses and enhanced by numerous historic features such as the Childrens Bridge, War Memorial and Rotunda. Public facilities include barbques, playground and toilets. A walk along the trail that follows the Angus River through Strathalbyn reveals why Strathalbyn is renowned as the prettiest town in South Australia.
Rotary Club of Strathalbyn bring the Soldiers Memorial Gardens to life by hosting the annual Duck Race. It's a great day for the whole family, come and join in on the fun.
