Chichester Park, Woodvale
The MetrO series returns to Woodvale this year for the first time in 15 years! The newly updated map covers the north eastern part of the suburb, offering the beautiful Yellagonga regional park, a frisbee golf course and some tricky connecting paths. Starting in Chichester Park, route planning will be the key to whizzing through Woodvale!
