Bomenmuseum Gimborn: a collection that grows outdoors

The Nationaal Bomenmuseum Gimborn in Doorn is an arboretum with trees and shrubs from different origins. Here, the walking route is the way to view the collection.

Plan your visit ↗

Looking at differences

Leaf, bark and growth form offer different starting points. Use the information beside the plants to understand names and origin, without relying only on outward resemblance.

The season plays its part

A living collection does not look the same all year round. Let your route depend on what stands out at that moment, and ask which parts suit your interest or the time you have available.

A route to suit you

A braille trail, a loan wheelchair and a mobility buggy (clubkar) are mentioned as facilities. The clubkar must be reserved in advance; discuss what support is needed to visit the grounds comfortably.

Before you go

Check summer or winter hours and closures due to weather in strong wind. Leave the car park before the gate closes, and reserve any aids in good time.
