We love to go outside and explore. One of our favorite things is to go on walks in different parks and nature preserves.
We have visited the Cohn Arboretum in Baton Rouge several times in the past couple years. The Arboretum tends to be fairly quiet.
There is always lots to explore along the two paved pathways that circle around a lake, green house, rose garden, bamboo and skirts a wooded area. The one mile trail provides you with lots to look at which keeps S interested.
We particularly love to visit in the spring when all the plants and trees are blooming.
The Cohn Arboretum is a wonderful place to take photos. I cannot help but get a few shots of S each trip to the Arboretum.
A visit to the Cohn Arboretum is a fun, healthy, FREE activity for the whole family. Yes, there is no admission fee for the Cohn Arboretum.
Have you been to a local arboretum? Does your family like to explore the outdoors?

Fantastic! Looks like a beautiful place to explore and learn about nature.
Yes, it is a lovely place!
How beautiful. What a great and lovely way to spend any day. I love exploring the scenery around me but often miss the opportunity. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks Tiffany!
Very beautiful! I didn’t realize you had another daughter Paris! So awesome, we are just alike!
We have a botanical garden in Atlanta but I haven’t made the trip there yet.
No, sorry Louida I only have one, S. It’s just pictures of her during different visits. 🙂
Looks beautiful! And it sounds like a wonderful place for the whole family to visit 🙂
Yes, it’s a perfect place.
I love taking nature walks, too! They are so peaceful and calming. It looks like a fabulous time!
Thank you Christina!
how beautiful! I’ve always wanted to visit Louisiana , esp New Orleans, but this looks like a wonderful place to go as well!
You should definitely come visit Louisiana!
Our little one has recently discovered flowers and how fun it is to smell them. In the past, he just tore the petals off them. Boys, so destructive!
Boys are so different than girls 🙂
This is beautiful! I wish we had somewhere similar around here! We do have a lake with trails closeby, and we try to go frequently!
That sounds lovely Holly!
That is gorgeous! I’ve only been to LA once, but I was stunned at how pretty all of the natural areas were. We don’t have an arboretum near me in SC, but we DO have lots of pretty parks!
That’s perfect too Natalie!
What a beautiful arboretum! It’s nice that it’s free, too. What a wonderful way to spend a family day.
I love free! 🙂
Gorgeous. I love beautiful parks for quiet walks. The girls are precious!
Looks so fun and pretty! I love arboretums, and getting to see the indigenous plant-life of the area.
What a perfect place to appreciate the outdoors and some stunning photos too. It looks like a great place to have locally. Thank you for sharing with me on Country Kids.
It is a wonderful place to explore.
What a beautiful place! Louisiana is full of beautiful places to visit. The food is great, too! =) My husband’s family lives in New Orleans so we get down there several times a year and always try to get out and explore something new. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, the food is amazing in Louisiana! Definitely one of the best things!
