Reed Quad Arboretum Walk


The University of Georgia campus is one of the most beautiful in the United States. Stately, noble trees provide human scale, a sense of place, cooling shade, and tranquility to students, faculty, staff and visitors. To walk this hallowed campus is to sense the pride in its heritage and hope for the future. The designation of the campus as an arboretum not only insures sustained, energetic tree planting and maintenance, but also presents opportunities for studying trees. This “Tree Walk” is the first project of the University of Georgia Campus Arboretum initiative. Begin this tour at Memorial Hall bus stop. Walk eastward from the bus stop. Behind the first wooded University Union sign is where you will find the first tree. Look for the black plaques mounted in front of each described tree species. To advance from tree to tree, use the arrows on the sides of the screen or swipe to the left if using the mobile map.
