Maps and resources

Walking maps

You can download our walking maps here for suggested routes through the Arboretum. Routes are clearly signposted. The YELLOW short route takes around 45 minutes to 1 hour, and the RED long route takes around 1 hour to 1.5 hours, allowing plenty of time to take in the points of interest. Our new BLUE route has been designed to identify smaller trees and shrubs suitable for visitors’ gardens. You can download a map here.

Children’s activity and colouring sheet

We welcome our younger visitors and provide seasonal colouring and activity sheets to keep them entertained. Due to current restrictions we cannot provide our usual hard copies so recommend that you download and print out a sheet prior to your visit and bring your own crayons.
