Hunter Region Botanic Gardens
Take a leisurely stroll in nature.
Overview
Spread out over 130 hectares, the Hunter Region Botanic Gardens is the place to come for a quiet stroll through nature and see some endangered native flora. The gardens are open every day from 9am-4pm and entry is just $3. For a fiver, you can join a guided tour that'll lead you through the history of the site and the themed gardens, plus there are a few walks throughout the garden's bushland where you may see birds, goannas, possums, wallabies and koalas in their natural habitat. There are also some ongoing events, including an Artist in Residence Program, featuring music, weaving and Aboriginal art ($10 including entry). After you've finished exploring, head to the Kookaburra Cafe for Devonshire tea, sandwiches and cakes.
