Hogsback's Arboretum is an absolute gem nestled in nature's embrace! My recent visit left me utterly enchanted. The sight of five majestic Californian Redwoods stood tall and proud, adding a touch of grandeur to the already breathtaking landscape. The multiple streams gurgling through the park created a soothing soundtrack, and discovering not one, but two waterfalls was a delightful surprise.
