Nearly five miles of paved and wood chip hiking trails wind their way through the Arboretum and Botanical Gardens and across two 75-foot bridges that span Wolf Creek. A major tributary of the Blue River, Wolf Creek bisects the Arboretum and Botanical Gardens.

Trails become more challenging along the limestone bluffs, which rise high above its southern banks. Our new rocky ridge trail takes you to the prairie and through a cedar forest and hickory grove.

For those less adventuresome, a half-mile asphalt "country road" trail is available for an easy saunter. Sidewalks extend from the parking area into all gardens and meet ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) standards for accessibility.
