We arrived with three bus loads of a tour group and enjoyed our stroll through this well maintained arboretum. A large section of native regional trees was impressive. There were no signs in English but we had good local tour guides.
Lovely setting by river. Gardens are very 'natural' and paths meander everywhere. Lovely collection of plants and a very peaceful location to go for a relaxing walk
Undoubtedly, one of the beautiful places in Valdivia. Just stroll around enjoying this extraordinary botanical garden. Together with a trip on boat to the rivers and the Food Fair in Niebla, I would say one can live happily ever after!
Hermosas especies vegetales, aún cuando no estaban en floración. La mejor fecha es la primavera en donde están en su esplendor los rododendros arbóreos, camelias y azaleas
Lovely and well kept, the University's botanical gardens are in a secluded spot of Isla Teja - away from the hustle and bustle of the main city. There are many ancient large tree specimens from around the world sorted by geographical groupings with paths meandering between them. Between the stands of trees are large well kept lawns that are nice to lie out or play on with kids or dogs. Put quite simply, this place is a spot of beauty and tranquillity, a true hidden gem that even the well travelled should visit. Although my boyfriend and I were in the city, we felt totally connected to nature and quite contemplative while here.
Very beautiful, good for a walk or run. Nice view of the river. Good for children. Not far from downtown.
Huge garden and right next to the river, it's a sight to be seen, definately an experience worth repeating.
The paths circle through well kept lawns, below trees of many heights and ages and types, and far out into the garden of trees and bushes. This is a place to slow down, to simply wander and sit on a bench, to dream or be with a lover, to smile and look upwards.
A worthwhile visit for 2 or 3 h. The park has many old trees which are worth to see. Alltogether a good Thing for a sunny morning
Over the bridge from he city, walk down the street and take the tree lined promenade to Austral. The garden will be on the right. It is not amazing but worth a visit to get away from the commotion of the city and into quiet nature.
