The Arboretum, State Botanical Garden of Kentucky

Very nice arboretum located on UK campus in Lexington. Long walking trails around the premises and paths to follow for most of the exhibits but there are some grassy paths to follow as well. Places to sit throughout with alcove after alcove of cool plants flowers and trees. Also a great tribute to victims of a plane crash and other statues throughout as well. Nicely done.

Absolutely LOVE going here with my little family for walks. The scenery is beautiful and makes you forget you're smack in the middle of the city. The trails through the wooded area that aren't paved make for a nice change if you're feeling a little more adventurous! The grounds are just gorgeous & so well taken care of! One of mine and my husband's favorite spots to bring our baby girl and pup for walks!

This arboretum is spacious with interesting varieties and pleasing walking trails and paths. Easy to find, ample Parking. The children’s storybook path is charming. A wonderful place to take the family out for fresh air and open spaces.
