Geelong Botanic Gardens
These heritage-listed gardens, which opened in 1851, showcase plants from all around the world.
Overview
Located next to Geelong's popular Eastern Beach Reserve, the Geelong Botanic Gardens spans over seven hectares and is great for picnicking, walking, bird-spotting, and more.
First opened in 1851, the gardens feature many heritage trees (and a handful of built heritage items, too), as well as special collections of geraniums, sage and heritage roses.
Whether you want to have a self-guided tour, participate in an educational program or take a guided walk, pop into the charming on-site teahouse when you're done for a bite to eat and a cuppa.
