The arboretum is on the south side of Bickham-Rudkin city park. The north end is the large dog park. There are walking/bike trails from the pavilion near the dog park entrance, south to the huge kids' playground and the arboretum. The trails continue west over a beautiful bridge and around the arboretum area. It is really a beautiful area to walk around or sit down on one of the benches and enjoy the scenery. One of the trees on the south end is dedicated to Carrie Tomlinson, Edmond's first urban forester. Restrooms are only available at the pavilion next to the dog park. There is a second nearby park (Whispering Heights) on the SE side of the huge kids' playground. It has a small playground, tennis/basketball courts, and picnic benches.
The closest parking lot to the arboretum is at the cul-de-sac west of the large kids' playground, at approximately Pepperdine and Meadowlane. If you see the tennis courts, the parking lot is just to the NW.
