Wilson Botanic Gardens makes good use of a former quarry, with walking paths looping around lakes, gardens and exposed rock faces. There’s a surprising amount of elevation for a botanic park, so you’ll get a few proper climbs alongside the easier lakeside sections. Keep an eye out for waterbirds around the lakes, and allow time to wander beyond the main loop as there are plenty of smaller paths and lookouts to explore.
