The two-kilometre route will take you past the highlights of the sprawling gardens, including the fragrance garden, the useful-plants collection, Erica beds, the cycads, the arboretum, the Zimbabwe sculpture garden and the centenary treetop walkway – a winding bridge offering panoramic views over the gardens and beyond.
