Great place, probably the most diversified greenspace in guelph. We need more places like this. Have a couple of family members "resting" here. So if you're afraid of ghosts, maybe don't go. Could use a couple shelters with bbq's for the living...

A hidden gem in the city. We visited on a whim while driving through and were pleasantly surprised. Beautiful grounds and plantings. The mini gardens are pretty. Offers a lot more and a must visit for all. Free entry to boot.

Howard Lenos

A quiet and serene environment with lots of unique outdoor garden experiences. Enjoyed discovering the wildlife and learning about some unique tree varieties. Refreshing place for a stroll or for simply taking in the vistas from one of the plethora of benches available throughout the park.

Jen Vlasman

Lovely place to hike and Geocache. Oddly enough I can't seem to find the trail I used to hike last winter but getting lost in the forest is half the fun.

Freddy Jongue

Gorgeous peaceful place especially at a time like this

Fun place to visit ????

Frölfênüügen 4 Lyfe

This place is quite large with an interesting collection of trees and an iconic disc golf course. There's pavilions with some amenities and information about the Arboretum. Tons of benches and great areas for picnics. Lots of pathways and very well maintained with a thoughtful layout. It's a picturesque park that's great for a walk with the family, fiance or dog. Worth checking out, bring your camera.

Pamela M. Cluthé

Green space. Gardens. Wildlife. Connect with nature. Beautiful. Love this place

Barthee Yoga

Beautiful place, natural and calm area.

This place is one of the reasons we choose to move to Guelph in the first place. Fountains, sculptures, epic boardwalks through marshes, a network of well maintained paths with maps and good signage, and even an indoor venue with a living roof and a gazebo for special events like weddings and the like. A nice quiet place to come and get grounded in nature or go for a walk with a friend. It's a real treasure for everyone to enjoy.

Scott Jones

Trails are hard to navigate. Lots to explore. Went in the fall. Would be curious what it's like in the spring too.

The Arboretum is a beautiful and peaceful place to go for some serenity. Wonderful meandering trails and walkways with lovely gardens, trees and flowers. Benches to sit and reflect or read a book. Adequate parking provided. No fee. Enjoy!

Elliot Mills

Wonderfull place to spend some quiet time for a walk.

Arlind Zalli

If you give this a one star rating a two star rating, or a three star rating, or say there are better places nearby, you are either picky, blind, or plain old dumb.

Jon Lazenby

Such a wonderful resource. Always popular but loads of space to enjoy the beautiful landscaping and planting. My dogs love it and we often meet up with friends too their too.

Tiasa Mondol

This place exceeded our expectations in terms of its natural beauty and the trails. Ample parking space, trails through the woods, clearings for picnic make it a perfect summer afternoon escape.

Zachary Esser

Absolutely beautiful scenery. If you're going to go for a walk, go to the arboretum. It is better than any other walking route I can think of! Fall leaves? Check. Lush greenery? Check. Massive variance in route lengths and paved options? Check. What more could you want! And it's on campus?? This is the place to be

Taty Preziosi

Unfortunately is a bit disappointed to see how the ponds are dirty, and smeally, need more care

Mike Shantz

Great place to walk around. There are lots of good trails to wander around on. Lots of shaded areas and benches to rest. I wish there was a place to get some water, just make sure to bring your own. Good parking and access.

Patrick Kloeze

Amazing place to learn about nature and horticulture!

Chris Harrison

I went there for my Covid19 vaccine. First shot . Everyone and everything is well Organized.

You can tell the University is giving the Arboretum a little more attention these days which is fantastic. They are servicing the boardwalks making the trails look so much nicer and be so much more accessible. I had a wonderful time. Wish …

DuncanIdaho redux

A brilliant and we'll kept arboretum with many rare and beautiful specimens and well kept gardens.

Jen Brodie

If it wasn't so far away from a bus stop this would be a great place for running and jogging. By the time I run there, I'm already beat. Would be nice if a bus stop was closer! A beautiful place for walking though!

Andrew Barter

Lovely area for a picnic or walking . Lots of info on the plants in the park. Once covid is over it will be a five star. We come here every year at least once. Parking is free and adequate. Only issue is proximity to busy highway on the east end.

Denez Zahra

Lovely park with a lot of picturesque spots. There is a wedding hall in the middle as well.

Dylan Curran

We went geocaching! Lots of neat finds hidden in the arboretum

Andre Michel Gaudet

Really nice outdoor space for walking, trails, disc golf or just relaxing outdoors

Bartosz Scheller

Super great place in the middle of Guelph. The infrastructure is done up and the place isn't really wild, but its great for a casual walk with a dog or if you want to shoot photos of birds.

Steve Kirkwood

I've been going here for 30+ years and will continue to go and show my son what I grew up doing. Really miss the nature centre and sugar shack.

Alexander Khvatov

A very pleasant park to jog in.

John Luciani

A great place to live for those who are 55 or over. Many amenities, beautiful grounds and all is well groomed. Condos, homes, townhouses, buy or rent. Medical care, if needed.

Kinga Olah

This park is huge. I love it most when I'm alone so I can take in the nature, be present and conscious of my beautiful surroundings. If a plant is in memory of someone it often has quotes under it to ponder on. I was a bit taken back from the "Rose garden" with no roses just weed growing, and the construction barrels in front of the Japanese garden which were left there were distracting.

Wajeeha Hasnain

Is kinda average if you traveled a long distance to get here

Ameeta Persad

The Arboretum was wonderdul. Lived walking in the garden with my boys.

Marcela Saavedra

Beautiful!

Kally Zwolak

I went on "Bug Day". There were educational displays, information and opportunities to try roasted (flavoured) bugs and cookies made from ground bug flour. The grounds themselves provide lovely trails to wander and beautiful plants and a wide variety of trees.

Adam Sachs

LOVE this place for photographing weddings and engagements!! Always so perfect.

John McPhee

It's a amazing place for all ages. We have been going with our 18month old all summer and find something new and interesting everytime.

Great place for a walk and to look for snakes and other wildlife. The forsythia and magnolia were in full bloom which was lovely. Such nice open spaces that it's easy to keep your distance from other people.

Monika JP

Beautiful fall colours! Lots of unusual species of trees.

janine vanvlaenderen

Love walking through here. Excellent place to clear your mind

Debbie J

Lots of great walking trails. Beautiful place to be with nature. If you look there are many critters that live in the arboretum. Would be a great place to reach young children about nature or go on a date. A oasis of nature in the city. Great place to go and relax. I go about once a month just to relax. Very quiet and peaceful. I particularly like the asian inspired garden and the wood trails.

Hamsa Reviews

One of the prettiest places we've seen in southwestern Ontario.

What a gorgeous spot. One of the best places in Guelph. Beautiful nature spot. Wish we had more of this all over the city and beyond!:)

Quiet and nice. Love the Japanese garden. Cute but zen! Many different types of trees. Love the tulip tree the most - leaves look like a painted picture.

Muhammad Kashif Saif (Bobby)

Very clean and maintained park. Enjoyed walking and meditated environment at the Japanese garden

Sabrina Paez-Parent

Grounds are well maintained and the plants are perfectly pruned. Even after heavy rain the water wasn't saturated with puddles. That made it very easy to walk around without getting drenched. The gazebo area has power outlets for electricity and has no steps making it easy for wheelchairs or strollers.

Joel Aitken

Always a great place to visit, even on a relatively busy Saturday afternoon their are plenty of quiet shady spaces to explore and embrace nature.

Bryan Stafford

Beautiful area and walking trails

I went to UoG from 2010-2014 and this was always my retreat from the world. Now I live in the city once again and bring my bunny here for some nature time.

Kevin Orr

Always a great place to spend time in nature

Really nice place for a relaxing stroll and learning about trees and shrubs.

Very pleasant walks, with several nice areas to explore. The numerous paths can make each visit a varied experience, versus other simpler one-end-to-the-other trails.

Steve Wilson

Great park, informative and lots of open space. Trails are well maintained and of course the selection of trees is great

Sonia Kalcic

Fantastic place to walk the dogs on-leash, especially after a visit at the vet university. Our girl Shiva is being treated for cancer and she just loves unwinding there after her chemotherapy treatments. Peaceful, meditative, awesome!

Good place

Great place for a walk, also very educational! Lots of information on our local fauna and even some not so local! Keep up the good work UoG

Ya AY

A botanical garden for Guelph residents.

Chris Lopes

Quiet spot for a walk. They have small garden and an event space.

What an amazing park. It is very well kept with lots of benches throughout. I really like that there are many plaques describing the spices. There are many walking paths, some are more accessible than others. There are also numerous places to park.

This one of the best trails in Guelph. I visited this place recently and is so beautiful. Place so quiet and calming. Has lot of trails in this area and those trails are properly marked on the map. Around 15 free parking spots available if you enter from East Ring Rd and then Arboretum Rd. Definitely visit this place again.

Karen W

This is one of the loveliest places in Guelph. Not only are you free to wander through the grounds, but there are marked paths, an English garden, and a Japanese garden (complete with koi pond). Perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Free parking.

Lesley Morgan

Nicely kept up :)

Annette Sayes

Such a lovely spot for a meandering walk. Well maintained and clean throughout!

Michael Ridler

Great place to hike or mountain bike

Ryan Meghdies

Great lil spot.

Harsha Kotthapalli

Great spot for a walk with your dog

Andrew Donovan

Arguably the most beautiful place to go for a walk in Guelph. The people who maintain the arboretum are world-class. Seemingly every tree, shrub and flower is labeled, there is information everywhere, there are many different types of gardens and hundreds of trails to 'get lost' on. Well worth a hike if you're in the area. Plus, you can then wander onto the University of Guelph grounds, which are also beautiful and full of things to do and see.

Chris S

Beautiful place to just get lost and enjoy the hidden trails. Tons of natural beauty and wildlife, and conveniently located on the U of G campus.

Cameron Spence

Great place to go with the kids. The Zen pond has fish in it and the fountain sometimes has tadpoles and frogs. Lots of fun!

l.a. levu

Beautiful and peaceful place to visit in all seasons. There’s always something in bloom and something new to discover. I especially like the variety of trees on display throughout the property.

Did our Maternity Photos here and it is such a lovely area. Would come back to visit anytime, if only I loved closer.

Paul Tonna

Beautiful in the fall. A little early this year for the colours. Will be back for the late fall.

George Prieksaitis

Great bird feeders and labels of trees on trails

nancy duque

Beautiful autumn scenery

Manvi Kapoor

The fall colours look absolutely amazing here. There are plenty of benches to sit and read. There are manicured gardens and forests. It's a very peaceful place. People walking dogs, doing photoshoots with the fall leaves and their toodlers/families, friends hanging out on picnic blankets. This is my new happy place. And if you're into trees, they're all labeled. Decent place to go bird watching as well.

Maxim Pashnin

Visited this spring on a weekend, large parking, not many people, long walks, lots of flowers and trees to educate yourself and to enjoy, we had a nice picnic with friends and family with dandelions and other flowers blooming all around.

Cori SG

Thank you for paving the road! Making access to enjoying the area much easier

Narendra Deonauth

If you are visiting Guelph this is definitely a nice place to visit for a walk in nature or to have a picnic. The trails are easy to walk, and are child/stroller friendly. Also, it is free to visit!!

Evan Thomas Knott

The benches are in rough shape.

Kyle Newbigging

Amazing disc golf course. Free to play just bring a disc. I recommend using the UDisc app.

Ronan Drysdale

Great place to walk even in the winter. Lots of dogs (always a plus). Main roads are ploughed but the paths weren't. Not a huge deal, snow was packed down from other hikers. Very nice.

Simon DiProfio

Beautiful set of trails with a mix of sun and shade

Ravina Banwait

It's so open, and peaceful. I especially love the Japanese rock garden.

Christine Tyrell

fabalous memories of my University days

Shane Price

Beautiful and very interesting.

robert denis

Nice new trails with elevated walkways over ponds. Good botanist as our personal guide

Dee Shan

My daughter was one of 11 students who died in the school year while attending the University of Guelph. Such there is tree dedicated to those students and every year we go to visit that tree. For us the Arboretum is a place of sanctuary in peace but even if you haven't lost someone it's a beautiful place to walk I think about how fortunate we are to still take breath.

Paul Barrett

Awesome fall walk. Plenty of space and interstong pathways.

eric fryters

Went there for some birding. Unfortunately no birds that day but nice place to get back to nature

KYLE TIENS

Good walking trail & learn about world of trees

Kenneth Mininger

We attended a wedding at The Arboretum this weekend. The location was beautiful and the windows provided a stunning view of the beautiful snow. Paths were well maintained and easily traversed. The staff did a great job seamlessly flipping the room during the event from the ceremony to reception tables. The waitstaff were well trained and provided an elevated dining experience. We appreciated the accessible accommodations with the back entrance and accessible bathroom in the lower area. Would highly recommend as a wedding location.

Rosemarie Lavrisa

Alieza Abraham

Finding places to go with my autistic son during the covid era has been a huge challenge. We've visited the Arboretum many times in the last 8 months in rain, shine and snow. It's beautiful in any season, people are friendly and there's always a new area to discover. Even when it's busy it doesn't feel busy. There's plenty of parking and tons of space to wander around and keep your distance from others. We absolutely love the Arboretum!

Adam Riches

Such a peaceful and incredibly large space to wander through and discover garden after garden spread throughout the grounds.

Dina Basevich

Beautiful, peaceful park. Great for a relaxing walk. And it's free!

Margaret Smit

Fun for geocaching too!

Leah 95

We went on a tuesday Afternoon. It was a very calming and peaceful place. It was interesting to discover non native trees and plants. The Japanese collection of trees were beautiful. You can finish the majority of the park in 1hr 30min, so it's good to have something else planned in the area. The admission and parking are free. It's a great family or date activity. Fyi , the Japanese garden was closed for maintenance right now. Also be careful near the marsh area, it is very buggy even in October. Bring bug repellent.

Desanges Duguay

Great place to go in nature, beautiful ???? trees, trails. Very clean, beautiful bridges. Went to see my husband plaque ( Custom Wallace) with the beautiful tree

Isidra Araujo

I liked it and it is very nice. I did feel it needed a bit more maintenance. I liked the Japanese garden. It was small but I sat there and enjoyed it. It is free. It seems a nice place to walk or exercise near the university.

Abhirup Basu

A magical place even for kids!!

Michael Touw

Went for a run here while in Guelph for a week for work. Was a nice break to get away from civilization and the busyness of the day. Seemed to be a lot of trail options, and some nice gardens. Well worth a stop to go for a walk, run or bike.

Carol

Even though it was winter, it is a nice place to walk

Bren D

Great place to visit.

Dan Kuehl

Has a decent 9 hole disc golf course. A nice walking path(crushed gravel and sand) so not too muddy. Allows leashed dogs. Usually has lots of university age people out enjoying the nice weather. Doesnt feel crowded tho. Lots of different types of trees with little signs that explain what they are.

Kumail Naqvi

Beautiful place but can use some work plants were kind of dead but everything else was amazing

Solid spot for some easy nature walking though I do wish they'd have more signs for what all the tree species are (at least the ones right off the main trails)

MJG

Nicole Hughes

It was beautiful, I want to go back every season.

Andre Auger

One of the most beautiful places to visit in any season. A true treasure for this city.

Jeremy Gorman

So many different and beautiful species of trees and shrubs to see. Plenty of endangered species that one might find difficult to locate in the wild, so it's nice to be able to see them here. The damage from the emerald ash bore and other invasive pests is also on display; sadly.

Tony V

Great trails and disc golf

Peter Hum

What a nice place to spend a couple of hours for a quiet stroll. No fees, free parking, tranquil gardens. Visited this in early October when most flowers had finished and would revisit later fall when leaves will change colors. Easy stroll on flat paths. We brought a picnic lunch and sat on the benches in one of the many sunny gardens. Very enjoyable! Please note that Due to covid, buildings and washrooms are closed. Only found one outdoor "Johnny on the Spot" toilet, but did not use.

umair hasan

Wonderful place to spend a couple of hours
