Review:
The Jacksonville Arboretum & Gardens is a 126-acre arboretum and public garden established as a unique natural attraction for the community of Jacksonville. Opened in 2008, the gardens feature a variety of attractions, including the Lake Loop, which encircles a two-acre lake surrounded by a variety of trees such as longleaf pine, black cherry, pignut hickory, laurel oak, and live oak. Other amenities include the Jones Creek Trail, which wanders through a range of flora such as bald cypress trees, swamp bay, American hornbeam, and several ferns, and the Ravine Trail, which follows the rim of a deep ravine with a bubbling stream flowing at the bottom. The Live Oak Trail winds through live oaks that are over a century old, and other trails include Lower Ravine, the Upper Ravine, Rosemary Ridge and Scrub, all of which offer plentiful exercise terrain.
