Stockton is set to become home to one of the most impressive playgrounds in the Hunter.

Newcastle City Council has unveiled plans for an 'Active Hub' in Griffith Park, featuring a 30-metre long double flying fox, a basket swing and a rock pool water feature.

It also includes an urban skate plaza.

A concept plan will go on public exhibition tomorrow.

"This community facility will be a social and economic game changer for Stockton," Newcastle Lord Mayor Nuatali Nelmes said.

"Griffith Park has long needed some clever urban design to activate its open expanse and I believe this hub fits the bill."

"Kids of all ages will have some great exercise options and parents and guardians will be able to keep tabs on them while relaxing and socialising in a shelter with good sight lines and BBQ facilities."
