Wakehurst
About This AttractionSuggest an Edit
Have a day out like no other at Wakehurst, Kew's wild botanic garden. Spot the wildlife and year-round colour in the valleys, and explore over 500 acres of ornamental gardens, ancient woodlands and a nature reserve. Wakehurst prides itself on being home to picture-perfect gardens, an Elizabethan Mansion and hundreds of acres of diverse landscape, featuring rare plant collections from around the world. Be sure to visit the Millennium Seed Bank, which is dedicated to the conservation of seeds from wild plants. Kids can scramble over the adventurous log trail Tree Trunk Trek, look out for woven willow tunnels to run through and explore a labyrinth. And the best bit? Children (aged 16 and under) have free entry to the gardens!
