Highland Park Tour: a Botanical Oasis in the City!

  • Gatehouse 2 399 Reservoir Avenue Rochester, NY, 14620 United States (map)

Join us for an afternoon walk through the blooming beauty and inspired vision of Frederick Law Olmsted’s Highland Park.
As summer begins to unfold, this guided tour will offer a look at the park’s stunning trees, shrubs, and gardens in full seasonal color. We’ll explore Highland Park’s rich history, thoughtful design, and the landscape elements that make it a living work of art. Learn how Olmsted’s background influenced his visionary layout and purpose for this public space. Along the way, we’ll highlight some of the park’s unique and historic “legacy” and specimen plants that help make Highland Park such a beloved and remarkable place.
