The park's distinctive blend of untouched natural bushland, well-maintained parkland, and fully developed sports fields is unmatched within the local government region. Here's what Boronia Park offers:
It safeguards three endangered ecological communities, serving as a crucial habitat for numerous native species, including those facing threats. Informational signs are in place to educate visitors about these ecological treasures.

It holds a place of honor as a heritage site within the Council's Local Environmental Plan (LEP), featuring multiple elements of Aboriginal cultural heritage significance and European historical value.
The park is a vibrant hub for individuals seeking casual leisure and recreational activities, featuring scattered park furniture and picnic spots.
It's a favored venue for personal trainers, fitness groups, dog-walkers, and other small gatherings.
Boronia Park significantly contributes to the local streetscape and offers picturesque views of the surrounding area.
For hikers, it intersects with the Great North Walk and presents a choice of internal bushland walking trails.
The park serves as a prominent location for community events, including the annual Moocooboola Festival, Food and Wine Festival, and Carols by Candlelight.
