The landscape includes diverse arboreal species, maintained lawns, and specific sections dedicated to biodiversity conservation.

The grounds are equipped with dedicated athletic zones, playgrounds, and picnic areas designed for community use. Its design prioritizes local flora, serving as a corridor for wildlife moving through the metropolitan periphery.

Do not attempt to swim in the artificial lake, as water quality is maintained for wildlife, not recreation.
