Monkey Puzzle Walk There are 31 pairs of Araucaria araucanas (Monkey Puzzles) in the avenue
It is the largest, most mature avenue recorded in Europe round.
9am – 7pm Summer months (April to mid October)
The gardens are home to a mix of formal and informal gardens with an arboretum, walled garden, terraced garden, yew walk and rose garden providing the main interest. Also of significance are two stunning avenues, the Monkey Puzzle Avenue and Noble Fir Avenue. Recently added are a rustic summer house, constructed from materials from the gardens and a fountain to replace the original which was sold from the gardens c.1930. The arboretum is home to many fine specimen trees from Asia and South America in particular. A number of these trees are recognised as champion trees due to their size.
Location: Woodstock Gardens and Arboretum is situated just outside Inistioge village. Approaching from Kilkenny, take the first right in Inistioge, up the steep High Street. Enter through main gateway at top of the hill. Access to the gardens is through car park 500m from the main gates
