Nature’s Living Museum: Eastwoodhill Arboretum Tour Offers a Scenic Escape Near Gisborne
Visitors seeking a peaceful retreat into nature can now experience one of New Zealand’s most remarkable botanical treasures through a guided excursion to Eastwoodhill Arboretum. Beginning in Gisborne, the three-hour tour transports guests to the 131-hectare sanctuary near Ngatapa, where thousands of rare and remarkable trees create an unforgettable setting for exploration and relaxation.
Established in 1910, Eastwoodhill Arboretum is recognised as the largest collection of Northern Hemisphere trees south of the equator. Home to more than 8,000 species of trees and shrubs from around the world, the arboretum also preserves native New Zealand flora, offering visitors the opportunity to discover both internationally significant collections and endangered plant species within a single landscape.
Guests are free to explore the arboretum’s extensive network of walking trails at their own pace. Gentle paths weave through towering tree-lined avenues, while more adventurous visitors can climb Mt Arateitei for sweeping views across the gardens and surrounding countryside. Families are equally well catered for, with a spacious playground featuring some of the country’s largest swings and dedicated play areas for younger children near the visitor centre.
The experience concludes with a traditional afternoon tea featuring freshly baked scones and a warm cup of tea served in the tranquil surroundings of the gardens. Accompanied by birdsong and peaceful scenery, the relaxed finale provides the perfect opportunity to reflect on the day before returning comfortably to Gisborne, making the excursion a memorable blend of nature, history, and hospitality.
