Wellington Botanic Garden

Awesome Gardens. Thank you to everyone who works to create this space for us! Easy way to explore the Gardens is to take the cable car and work your way downhill through the gardens. Check out the Rose Garden and Begonia House! Most beautiful flowers in bloom right now - December 31. Enjoy the beauty of this natural setting.

One of, if not the best Botanic gardens we've experienced! 64 acres of breathlessly beautiful flora Take the Cable car as it drops you off at the top of the garden, and it's all a downhill walk. Flowers abundant beginning to bloom early December. Lots of surname and magnificent pines, the biggest I've ever seen. 100 feet? More? And dozens of them that tall. Several specialty areas, rose garden, tree house, large children's play area. Totally clean, the total acreage. This is a must see, and you could literally spend a full day. Don't forget your camera, or clean the lenses of your cell phone. Oh, and it's free!

It is a leisure walk for about an hour or so. Lots of road signs that make sure you won't get lost. There is a children playground about 1/4 of the route if you start from the cable car station. There are lots of good views of downtown Wellington at this trail.

The most magical place with awesome energy. I also leave feeling more in tune with nature and myself. The flower garden near the playground where I swear real fairies live in - not at the human-made fairy garden and the succulent garden are two of my favourite areas :

Beautiful gardens....worth saving by the council!!!nLovelyshortcable car ride up...or you can walk. Paths down are beautiful with a muststopshopat the Tree House.
