A new six-metre-high climbing structure is ready for play at Saumarez Park.
In 2023, the play structure at Sausmarez Park, known as the Spider's Web, was removed due to safety concerns.
After 30 years of play, the ropes had worn down to their metal core, exposing some sharp edges.
Guernsey Wooden Spoon says they heard an "outcry" from islanders when the popular equipment was taken down.
They began fundraising for a replacement - £36,000 was needed for the materials and installation.
Three years later, the Spider's Web structure is back, standing six metres tall.
Charity chair Karen Solway hopes the web will provide countless hours of adventure, exercise, and enjoyment for decades to come.
"This is a very special project for us and one that will have a lasting impact on the island's children.
"The previous climbing frame was loved by generations of families, and we are delighted to be helping create a new centrepiece for play at Sausmarez Park.
"Our hope is that this fantastic new structure will inspire adventure, friendship and fun for the next generation and beyond."
The Guernsey Wooden Spoon thanks Prime Paving, Hope for a Child and Saffery Rotary Walk for their help in this project.
