Botanical Society invites public to guided garden walks

The Botanical Society of Namibia hosts monthly guided walks at the National Botanical Research Institute in Windhoek, offering visitors an opportunity to explore the country’s indigenous plants and learn more about its botanical diversity.Usually held on the second Saturday of each month, the walks run from 08:00 to 10:45 between September and April, and from 08:30 to 11:00 between May and August.Participants can enjoy a leisurely stroll through the garden, a natural space that offers a peaceful green oasis in the heart of Windhoek. Benches along the route provide places to rest and take in the surroundings.Experienced guides share insights into Namibia’s indigenous flora, including the uses, distribution, conservation status and ecological importance of various plant species.The walks aim to encourage greater awareness and appreciation of the country’s plant diversity, while highlighting the importance of conserving indigenous species and their natural habitats.The guiding fee is N$30 for non-members. Members of the Botanical Society and children attend free of charge.Visitors are encouraged to wear comfortable walking shoes and bring sunscreen, a hat and drinking water. Binoculars are optional for those who would also like to spot wildlife in the garden.For more information, contact the organisers on 081 222 8686 or visit www.botsoc.org.na.
