As a volunteer at this park I find this place as a historic Jacksonville Gem! This place has a rich history and an amazing story to tell! However I’m slightly biased! Largest complaint is the dirt road leading up to the entrance! Great Jr. Ranger Program here as well!
Be sure to do the Tree Canopy Walkway (also referred to as 'The Boomslang') while at Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens. http://www.sanbi.org/gardens/kirstenbosch/tree-canopy-walkway
