What to expect
What makes this walk different
The Arboretum is a landscape of tree collections, paths and hills rather than a fenced dog run. Its visitor guidance requires dogs on leash at all times and prohibits walking in planting beds.
Getting there
The Arboretum lists its address as 125 Arborway, with several public gates. The grounds are open from sunrise to sunset. Review its visiting and parking information before heading out.
Dog access and rules
Dogs are allowed on leash at all times; owners must remove waste. Stay off planting beds and keep a respectful distance from wildlife. This is not an off-leash dog park.
