No public rating for this park can be attributed to a platform and a recording date, so this page shows none, and the hoprat score is calculated without the “reviews” dimension.

Coordinates taken from OpenStreetMap (Nominatim) and real routes calculated by OSRM on 22 September 2026. The “Friday evening” column is not a measurement: it is the normal time multiplied by 1.3.
