Self-Guided Tours
Detailed maps are located in a birdhouse-like structure near the kiosk. There are many trails through the Garden and all are open to the public. The map shows which paths have easier terrain and which are more challenging.
-
Protect the garden by remaining out of the planted areas and by walking on lawns and gravel surfaces.
-
Please supervise your children.
-
Dogs must be on a leash and owners are asked to clean-up after them.
-
Please remove all valuables from your vehicles to avoid car prowls. If you must leave items in your car, please place them where they cannot easily be seen before you get to the Garden.
