The Arboretum at Gustavus Adolphus College
About this place
A 125-acre natural area on the Gustavus Adolphus College campus, free and open to the public year-round. Families can walk, run, or bike along 2.5 miles of trails that pass through prairie, conifer forest, and deciduous woodland, spotting native plants, wildflowers, birds, and wildlife. The grounds include gardens, a shady labyrinth, open meadows, and an interpretive center. Winter visitors can ski the trails. The site welcomes school groups and community events.
