HortPark

HortPark is a large gardening hub in Queenstown with different themed areas, including herb gardens, butterfly habitats, and plant displays throughout the grounds. The facility features maintained paths, plant collections, and growing areas for visitors to explore.

The site was founded in 2007 as part of a plan to expand green spaces throughout the city. It marked an important step in developing garden spaces for the public.

The park displays gardens with different plants from the region, and visitors can watch gardeners at work throughout the grounds. The paths lead past planted areas where traditional growing methods and modern gardening practices exist side by side.

The park is accessible by several train stations and offers pedestrian access on most days. Comfortable shoes are recommended since there are many paths to explore.

The grounds house a special zone where native butterfly species can be observed in their natural surroundings. Researchers also conduct tests here on vertical garden systems and sustainable growing methods.
