The Tasmanian Arboretum, Botanical tree park in Eugenana, Tasmania, Australia.
The Tasmanian Arboretum spreads across 66 hectares and displays tree collections from temperate regions in both Northern and Southern hemispheres. The grounds include walking paths and garden sections where you can explore different plant communities.
The Arboretum was founded in 1984 and has focused on specialized tree collections and conservation areas since then. The facility documents Tasmania's natural heritage through systematic cultivation and preservation.
The Limestone Heritage Walk showcases geological rock formations and old industrial structures that tell the story of Tasmania's colonial past through self-guided paths.
The grounds are located roughly 12 kilometers from Devonport and open during daylight hours, with longer hours in summer than winter. The visitor center can help you plan walks and find your way around the paths.
The grounds hold the world's largest collection of Tasmanian woody plants and offer regular platypus sightings at Founders' Lake. This dual role as a research facility and wildlife viewing spot makes it special.
