The Tilden Regional Parks Botanic Garden, an enchanted, not-so-secret garden, is a magical place for visitors of all ages at no cost. The garden is full of California native plants, rare and endangered including flowers, ferns, trees and even flowering cactus.
You don?t have to be a botanist to enjoy the space, just a lover of peaceful and serene environments. This 10-acre treasure is only moments from the Caldecott tunnel and a leap from University Ave. The Botanic Garden sits at the foot of the Brazil Room (our beloved wedding venue) and 5 minutes past the classically coveted Steam Train. ?This is a perfect outing for your family to get a nature fix just minutes from home. My 18-month old loves it.
What to expect
There are small mythical like stone bridges, quaint meadows, a curving creek and gentle flowing waterfalls. The meadows are well-suited for picnicking and taking in the pleasant surroundings. We always pack snacks and a blanket. The paths are safe and gentle, perfect for little feet and the inexperienced hiker. The landscape and perfectly placed benches are reminiscent of illustrations in childhood storybooks. The Regional Parks Botanic Garden is not to be overlooked, but enjoyed just as much if not more then Tilden Parks other child friendly destinations.

Here?s a map of the gardens to plan your adventure.
