Arboretum Garden Tours

About this event

Join staff and volunteers at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum for a relaxed garden walk that invites your family to look closer at the formal gardens and the stories they hold. You will explore accessible paths, hear about Arboretum history and research, and notice how plants shape the landscape around you. Along the way, you will stroll between a handful of garden stops, learn something new together, and enjoy a nature-filled outing that works well for adults and kids alike. With welcoming all-ages appeal and a thoughtful route, this is a simple way to spend time outdoors in Minnesota and make the most of a summer visit to the Twin Cities area.
