An Audio Guide may be hired for a nominal fee from the Tree Park Kiosk when it is open.

We think that using the Guide will add significantly to the enjoyment of your visit. It explains the major points of interest, the collections and some of the interactions of the plant world and comes with a guide showing the locations of the points of interest.

We are sure you will understand that we require a security deposit, such as your credit card details, to ensure the headset is returned.

Trees and shrubs from the temperate world show their habits through the seasons. There are numerous interpretive panels and all woody plants are labelled.

Many Botanical Gardens display trees and some have a special part for that display, an Arboretum. The difference is we do not record and rarely display the names of the plant that are not woody.

Guided tours are available by prior arrangement.

Experience the story behind the Arboretum, the story the trees tell and the heritage of the site. We can provide an expert guided tour at a cost of $30 per hour but ONLY with prior arrangement.

For further information, to make an enquiry, or to arrange a guided tour please phone The Secretary on 03 6427 2690 or send us an email.

Far from the madding crowd our restful rural setting of 66 hectares of landscape park is enchanting in all seasons. Picnic in the shelters or on the grass. BBQs need at least 2 x $1 coins.

The Tree Park Kiosk is now open every day from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. Enjoy a coffee or hot chocolate, some of that legendary home made ice-cream or light refreshments. For further information please contact us.

When open, the volunteers on duty can answer enquiries about the Arboretum. At other times visitor guide pamphlets are available or you may find a volunteer working on site.

Follow trails through a garden of trees from temperate climates or simply wander through a beautiful and peaceful landscape.

Explore the remnants of colonial industry and ancient geological forces in the doubly unique Eugenana limestone beds.
