The arboretum puts its trees at the centre of the visit, making it a different botanical experience from Mount Coot-tha's larger themed gardens. Paths pass through planted areas and toward the Brisbane River. A playground and open space make it workable for mixed-age groups even when only some visitors want to study the collections.
