About the Skatepark
Crossfield Skatepark is one of East Auckland’s established skate facilities — sitting within Crossfield Reserve on Crossfield Road in Glendowie. The headline feature is the concrete bowl: it has steep walls and deep pockets that challenge experienced skaters with serious transitions. Around the bowl, two fun boxes plus banks and ledges give learners and intermediate skaters more accessible terrain to develop on. The combination means the skatepark works for a mixed-skill session — beginners and advanced users in the same facility rather than separating them.
The park is well-lit for evening skating, making it usable into the night and through shorter winter days. The wider Crossfield Reserve has a playground, basketball court, sports fields, picnic seating, toilets and a car park — so a skatepark visit can naturally combine with family use of the rest of the reserve.
