University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum

I have a love hate relationship with this place.On the one hand i grew up going here all the time and it has plenty of undeniably beautiful spots.But on the other hand it can be a lot of boring muddy trails full of flies.All it all i suppose it depends when you come and what events they have going on. Definitely worth a visit.

Summer camp review:The counselors are grownups who can communicate with adults, sounds like a low bar but many camps can't meet this expectation. The photos were glorious, this camp took more photos of my daughter in a week than her private school did in a year. She made a friend at this camp and learned so much that she was excited to share with me. Will definitely sign up again next summer!

Such a gorgeous place year round. Even within the season they continue to rotate their flora and fauna, festivities, events, and exhibits. The grounds are spectacular to wander, and I discover something new each and every time I am there. It's beautiful, unique and a learning experience too. I love that this is available for all to enjoy. My favorite is the flowers and I also love seeing their fall displays. So incredible.

Date night, family night, need a walk outside, want to be around nature, see holiday lights, view tulips for Mother's Day, learn about local agriculture -- the Arb literally can do anything. There are tons of art opportunities, it is guaranteed to be a beautiful visit every time no matter what season. Make sure your passes are handy on the drive in because they'll scan the pass before you can get on the grounds. All staff I've come across here are friendly and helpful and genuine. I think this place can't be beat when it comes to art, nature, community, and variety. You also feel good about the price of admission knowing it goes back into the Arb to maintain and fund their programs.

This is just a review for their winter Christmas lights. Went on their "date night" for adults only and it was really festive with beautiful displays of holiday lights. There are 14 different areas on a self guided walk and a little fire pit stop where you can roast smores for $7 Dress in layers as it gets chilly at night

We went with family to see all of the gorgeous Christmas lights, trees, and decor. We also enjoyed some soft pretzels and cocktails inside where we warmed up. Then we visited the adorable gift shop for a few trinkets.It made for a lovely holiday experience! Bundle up and head over with the fam!!

Wonderful way to spend a summer day! Quite a range of vegetation, from native trees to ornamental flowers. They have a beautiful visitor's center with a very nice restaurant!

Gorgeous and expansive park with many different areas all connected by trails. You can come here to do a mild hike or bike around. Their firefly night in June/July is incredible to see!We will definitely keep coming back!

Beautiful scenery and amazing resource! Spent hours here and didn't even see everything definitely worth the trip out! Did an amazing job with my cousin's wedding from the service to the attention to detail! Online they say tickets are only $20 which is an amazing value for how much there is to see and learn.

I really liked the scenery there everything so peaceful and relaxing. The art stuff there is really nice
