Alma Park
Established during the 1880s and winner of several awards, Alma Park is located one block from Uralla’s main street. The park received its name in 1893 when local school children assembled to plant one hundred trees within its grounds. The first tree was planted by Alma O’Connor, daughter of the Mayor, Alderman O’Connor, and the park now bears her name in remembrance of the occasion.
Dangar's Lagoon & Racecourse Lagoon
Located within close proximity of Uralla township are three upland wetlands; the main two being Dangar’s and Racecourse Lagoons. A wetland is an area that is wet for a period of time and within which the animals and plants are dependant to some degree on water to complete their life cycle.
