HISTORYJuly 19, 2010The Holden Arboretum was started in 1931 with a request from Albert Fairchild Holden. It is one of the largest arboretums and botanical gardens in the US with over 3,500 acres of land.
Michael TchouMay 20, 2017A fantastic place for a walk with a lot of stroller and wheelchair accessible hikes! The new canopy walk and tower offer fantastic views, including a view of Lake Erie- Sean WeltonAugust 16, 2014Take the woodland trail to see some beautiful old growth forest. Make sure to check out the Offut Memorial Boardwalk along the way; the fern area is beautiful!
Discover OhioFebruary 8, 2013A living museum of forests & woodlands, meadows & display gardens, Holden is the largest of its kind in the U.S. It's a place of year round beauty with tremendous scientific and ecological importance.
- Beautiful grounds, come walk your babies on the canopy walk to get them out of the house. Don't fall off the emergent tower. Come in autumn, stay until spring.
Melissa JedlickaJuly 27, 2019Beautiful gardens and trails through all four seasons. Emergent tower and canopy walk. Nice nature center. Many activities, classes, guided hikes, etc available.
Lake County Visitors BureauJanuary 25, 2012Something to do all year round - Hiking, kid's activities, classes involving everything from horticulture to snowshoeing to yoga in the garden and more!
Sheila Coleman-HuntAugust 12, 2016Beautiful scenery and nice walking trails, fun for the whole family
- David SutulaJune 20, 2010The staff will try to scare you away from doing the Molly Orffutt Memorial Boardwalk by telling you that there are 96 stairs to climb. It's no big deal, really, and the creek is fun for little kids.
Chip D.March 14, 2011Consider avoiding Old Valley and Pierson Creek Loop trails during the spring thaw as the water in the creek might make it too high to pass at the low points in the trails.
