Exercise guide: Nichols Arboretum

This is NOT an in-person event.

These Exercise Guides are intended to assist and encourage exploration of parks and natural areas in the Huron Valley Group region. Please enjoy them on your own or with others.

The Arb is wonderful, and even more so when you explore its amazing secondary trails. If you haven't been on the back trails at the Arb, you might be pleasantly surprised by how woodsy it can feel. If you find yourself disoriented on the Arb's secondary trails, proceed to a downhill trail and follow it; downhill will always lead you to a main trail.

Trails tend to be dry, some are a bit steep, most are dirt with some stones and roots. Expect lots of hills.

The park is free; parking is free on weekends if you park in the M28 lot across from Mary Markley hall.
