- Note: Many GPS units do not correctly identify the Arboretum’s location, therefore we do not recommend a general search for "Arboretum" in your GPS device but rather use the address above. Parking & Meeting Point: When you arrive, let the gate team know that you're joining the Forest Bathing walk with the Adult Education Department. From there, you will meet your guide at the Production Greenhouse, in a tucked away portion of the property. As you pass the main parking area, you'll see a road turning off to the right named "Greenhouse Way". Turn right onto this road and continue to follow it, bearing left. You'll eventually reach a roundabout and will see the parking area off the second roundabout exit.
