Newton Arboretum & Botanical Gardens

Houghton Garden
Park
👍👍 Nice place for a short, midday hike. Not much elevation and lots of benches to sit on if you get tired. Street parking and multiple entrances, might be helpful to take a pic of the garden map so you know where to go.

👍 Really nice place. Scenery is beautiful. Very clean. Disc golf course is not complete and is a little swampy in some areas. Wear boots. It is confusing because the baskets don’t have numbers on them and a lot of tee boxes are not numbered. It has the potential to be a great course. Bike trail, walki...
