Berkeley Rose Garden, Public rose garden in Berkeley Hills, United States.
Berkeley Rose Garden is a public rose garden in the Berkeley Hills featuring more than 1,500 rose bushes arranged on amphitheater terraces. The site offers views of San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge from various viewpoints.
The garden originated in the 1930s as a employment project during the economic depression and opened officially in 1937. Since then it has remained an established green space in the hills.
The garden follows English rose garden design traditions, attracting visitors who sit under pergolas and spend time admiring the blooms. The pathways reveal how roses thrive in this region and how they are cultivated and maintained.
The garden is located in the Berkeley Hills and is freely accessible daily, with the best visiting time in May when roses are in full bloom. Parking is available on site, and the pathways are well paved, making it easy to explore.
A large redwood pergola spanning 220 feet (about 67 meters) stretches across the amphitheater, providing shade for seating areas. This striking wooden structure also supports climbing roses that grow along its beams.
