Visiting Bicton Gardens
A treat for all ages awaits at Bicton Park Botanical Gardens home to many rare plants with origins from all parts of the world including one of the finest collections of trees in Britain. This Heritage garden is maintained by a team of dedicated gardeners who look after and tend the different areas, so that you can enjoy them to their fullest. The 63 acres of land and gardens to explore will keep you coming back time after time as you see them progress through the year and change with the seasons.
Also enjoy a scenic ride around the park on Bicton Woodland Railway a treat for children and grown-ups alike. It's also something special for railway enthusiasts, because BWR runs on the only 18-inch (457 mm) gauge leisure line left in Britain. The train operates all year, making regular 25-minute trips, for which there is a small extra charge.
