Forest giants, fragrant herbs and birdsong - Guided Walk
Advertisement
In this 75-minute walk we will get up close to some delightful pygmy pines before, on a gentle slope, passing under and being awed by their towering cousins en route to a wonderful view of Wellington City.
In the Herb Garden we will see and hear a little about the aromatic, culinary and medicinal properties of familiar and not-so-familiar herbs, before descending, possibly accompanied by some birdsong, through a tract of native forest down to Lady Norwood Rose Garden.
Meet at the Founders’ Entrance, Glenmore Street.
Cost: $10 or Free for Friends – bookings required (you’ll get the option to choose your ticket type after clicking ‘Buy Tickets’)
This is part of the regular walks run by the Friends of the Wellington Botanic Garden. They run throughout the year with a different topic every time.
Join the Friends for only $30 a year and all the walks will be free, as well as other great benefits.
