This garden it not bad for picnics. You have to, however, bring Everything you need including your mats. You won't be able to rent any around. You could pay to ride a horse in here too. It is by Jabi L'ake and there are boat services there. I doubt that you would like the boats though. The last time I was there, the boat I saw did not look good at all.
Mobility wise, there are not special services to meet the needs of persons with reduced mobility.
You can have a family hang out here. You would not necessarily need a tent, the trees would serve you well. You can bet on enough cool breeze too during your stay here.
This is basically one of the best places I've been to. I feel more relaxed and full of energy when am there. The ora around it is just amazing!!!
Jabi Garden is an open field for picnics, events and relaxation. It is directly opposite the Jabi Shopping Mall that houses Shoprite, Games with the lake separating one from other. There are facilities on ground at the Garden which makes ones visitation fun-filled ranging from horse ride, boat cruising, games and entertaining groups. It's one of the most visited Gardens in Abuja because of the land mass which can accommodate lot of people.

Cool ambience, beautiful view and you can even take a boat ride on the lake.
If you're looking for a nice picnic spot, or a peaceful exercise ground, Jabi lakeside garden is the place to go. And shop rite mall is a stroll away too
It was cool.. But you have to be careful with your vehicle as hoodlums stole a man's vehicle as we arrived the area
Serenity at its peak.
Fun fact: it has an artificial lake around it.😘
Good place for a family hangout, sporting activities for all ages, horse rides. The only issues are (1) there is no toilet hence you may find faeces around. (2) it is not properly lit at night. (3) no designated refuse bin or waste dump
It's an ideal place to hangout for people who appreciate nature's artwork. The trees and waterside view are very relaxing especially for morning workout and evening stroll. It's one of the ideal places for water boat rides, picnics and other gatherings in Abuja.
This is one of the most interesting places I've been to in Nigeria- Horse rides, football pitches, table tennis boards, boat rides, basketball courts, picnic spots, and a whole lot of fun variety services are offered here. I just had to give it a 5 star cos my visit to this place will forever be imprinted in my memory!
I loved the view of the jabi lake the most. There are many fun things to do here like horse riding, riding a boat/canoe, face painting, There's also a football field and volleyball court.
Its fun and its large, there is space for exercise of all types and time for some lighthearted communication afterwards.. Everything you require for before and after is available
Jabi dam was a general pack created during obasanjo administration, where people usually come for relaxation and site seeing, it's a nice place. Sports activities
Another example of a wonderful thing left to decay. The lake is beautiful and debris free but the park is strewn with trash and untended grass.
There are motor boat rides available which range in selection from an open air boat to a water bus depending on the size of the party. Other activities include pool, table tennis, and foosball. You might be able to watch dance crew practice and football matches. There are well made stone benches for a rest in the shade.
Across the water is the Jabi Lake Mall. Opposite the garden is a hotel if you plan to spend the night.
Child friendly and warm park bordering jabi lake. Nice for walking jogging and has all sorts of games to relax with during the weekend
This Place needs an upgrade. It can be better
Serene. You can sit and read a book, watch the gentle waves or even go horseback riding. Also great for picnics and workout.
Is very perfect and relaxing, peaceful for everyone above all it has a fitness center.
A good spot for workout, playing volleyball and other sports. Good place for kids to ride bicycles and skate. Picnicking can also be done here. Management is a bit poor though.
Green environment, nice park has good facilities. Good place to bring your kids.
