Mountain Top Arboretum, Botanical garden in Tannersville, Catskill Mountains, United States.
Mountain Top Arboretum encompasses 178 acres of gardens, meadows, and forests at 2,400 feet elevation in the New York City Watershed.
The establishment of the garden began in 1977 when the Ahrens family started designing and planting a seven-acre area at the mountain summit.
The Arboretum published 'Twenty-One Trees', a book documenting tree species at the Education Center and their connection to local forests.
The garden features three main sections for plant displays: the West Meadow, the Woodland Walk, and the East Meadow for visitor exploration.
The Spruce Glen section contains 163 acres of wild forest with trails leading through fens, bogs, and old growth hemlock stands.
