The aging Orange Adventure Playground in north Orange is set for an overhaul after 20 years of use.
Community suggestions for its replacement so far include a flying fox, water feature, rock climbing wall, in ground trampoline, a maze, bike track, and sandpit.
Inclusive equipment including wheelchair swings and an orbit are also proposed.
Private contractor Civille Pty Ltd has been engaged by council to develop a new design.
Representatives for the company will be in Orange from 10am to 2pm on Saturday 26 November for community consultation.
Suggestions are also being canvassed via the Orange YourSay website which can be found here.
