About

This arboretum is a tranquil escape for locals looking for a peaceful walk in the woods. The trails are well-maintained with mulch, making them accessible even after rain. Visitors appreciate the natural beauty, though some warn about poison ivy and the occasional city noise. It is a fantastic spot for a quick nature fix, though don't expect a massive botanical garden. The camellia cove is a highlight for many.

Check out Entrance 3 to find a bonus trail that leads to Oak Brooke Park—it's like getting two parks for the price of one.
