The 31 spectacular hectares of Gold Coast City's Regional Botanic Gardens offer residents and visitors a green haven in the middle of a bustling metropolis.
There's something for everyone - horticultural display gardens, a world class sensory garden, mangroves to mountains transect displaying local species in garden settings, a native butterfly garden, rose gardens, an extensive boardwalk system around the central lake, picnic areas, children's playground, and even an off-leash dog exercise area.
And still more attractions are being developed as part of the Botanic Gardens Master Plan, including a children's garden, visitor facilities and additional pathways.
The Gardens are centrally located at Ashmore Road, Benowa.
