This year, visitors can expect a variety of new trails, designed to showcase the Arboretum’s most scenic spots. Families, gardening enthusiasts, and nature lovers alike will find something to enjoy in this enchanting display, perfect for brightening up even the gloomiest winter day.

Visitors can also create their own displays at home, as snowdrops 'in the green' are available for purchase at our onsite garden centre,” said Laura Summers, Press and Marketing at Batsford Arboretum.
