There are thirty parks in the Subiaco municipality, categorised as district, neighbourhood or local parks.
District parks are generally large in size, suitable for small and large functions, provide a range of amenities and often attract people from outside the City of Subiaco. Neighbourhood parks contain facilities that attract people from the surrounding area. Neighbourhood parks do not include toilet facilities. Local parks are small and scattered throughout the city. Many include play equipment and are designed to meet the immediate needs of local residents.
