Westonbirt, The National Arboretum, is a world-renowned botanical collection featuring over 15,000 specimen trees from across the globe.

Managed by Forestry England, the 600-acre site is famous for its spectacular seasonal displays, particularly the vibrant autumn colours of its Japanese maples.

Visitors can explore miles of leafy paths, walk amongst the canopy on the STIHL Treetop Walkway, or enjoy the dedicated family play areas and interactive discovery trails.

The arboretum is a centre for international conservation and research, but it is also a place of immense beauty and tranquility.

Whether you are a budding botanist or simply looking for a peaceful walk in nature, Westonbirt provides a stunning and ever-changing landscape throughout the year.
