Edith J. Carrier Arboretum offers a botanical and woodland destination on James Madison University’s campus in Harrisonburg.

Trails connect a pond landscape with planted gardens and natural areas.
Use the arboretum’s current visitor map to choose parking and a route suited to your needs, including the accessible pond loop. Organized programs follow separate arrangements from an ordinary grounds visit. The photograph shows an earlier pond-and-tree view rather than a guarantee of the same foliage, flowers or current availability of every path.
