Royal Botanical Gardens
The Royal Botanical Gardens (RBG), headquartered in Burlington, Ontario, is the largest botanical garden in Canada and a designated National Historic Site. It serves as a vital bridge between the urban environments of the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area and the natural beauty of the Niagara Escarpment. The RBG encompasses four distinct formal gardens—the Hendrie Park, the Laking Garden, the Rock Garden, and the Arboretum—as well as over 2,400 acres of nature sanctuaries. The newly rejuvenated Rock Garden is a masterpiece of sustainable design, offering year-round interest with its unique topography and water features. The RBG is also a major center for plant research and environmental education, hosting numerous workshops and seasonal exhibits like the popular holiday train display. Hikers can explore over 27 kilometers of nature trails that wind through wetlands and forests, providing sanctuary for diverse wildlife. Whether you are a serious gardener looking for inspiration or a family seeking a peaceful afternoon in nature, the RBG offers an unparalleled landscape of beauty and biodiversity in Southern Ontario.
