Audio Tour

Home » Visit » Audio Tour

Thank you for visiting The Dawes Arboretum. We’ve created two tours that will narrate your drive along our Auto Tour. Both narrations begin at the roundabout down the hill from and west of the Visitors Center. Please use the signs at the roundabout to determine if you are taking the North Auto Tour or the South Auto Tour. Both narrations are designed to be driven at The Arboretum speed limit of 15 miles per hour.

The Dawes Arboretum greatly appreciates the community support that made this audio tour possible. KOOL 101.7 FM and Buckeye Country 107.7 FM donated recording time and amazing audio production and editing to make everything sound great, and Licking County Commissioner Tim Bubb donated his time and considerable talent as the voice of the audio tour. Thank you for your wonderful contributions.

North Tour (7:24)

 

South Tour (10:03)
