With brief and heartfelt speeches and a snip of the ribbon, the new boardwalk at Kruckeberg Botanic Garden opened to the public.


An excited crowd of city councilmembers, past and present Executive Directors, designers and construction workers, board members, city parks staff, and Kruckeberg staff posed for a family portrait on the new boardwalk.


The boardwalk zigzags through the forested park, accessing areas previously inaccessible to visitors.


It was built to ADA requirements.


Representatives from Forma Construction and Mithun design were on hand to see people enjoy their work.

Come take a walk through the forest
