• Pick your entrance: the big mammoth playground is by Sempacherstrasse, the smaller one with the paddling pool by Frobenstrasse
• Public toilets in the park, with food at the Kunsteisbahn and the tennis club
• Kunsteisbahn Margarethen ice rink sits in the park, next to the Basler Lawn Tennis Club courts

Margarethenpark is the big green space for the Gundeldingen neighborhood ("Gundeli"), though it sits just over the line in Binningen. A wide open lawn is ringed by old trees, with woodland paths behind.

The main playground by the Sempacherstrasse entrance, built in 2026, has a mammoth, a baby mammoth and a volcano. A smaller one by Frobenstrasse has a climbing course and a paddling pool.
