Overview

Venture into the forests with a volunteer guide for a two-hour long guided walk to discover the stories behind the forests, and experience the trees and forests from a poetic perspective. Knowledgeable and passionate volunteers give tours through the ever-changing forests to give visitors an insight into the history, purpose and stories of the National Arboretum.

There are over 20 kilometres of multipurpose trails that wind through a mosaic of 94 individual forests at the National Arboretum Canberra.

Whilst you are there, surround yourself with some of Canberra’s best panoramic views, stunning architecture and themed, landscaped gardens.
