The Ruth Bancroft gardens is a hidden gem. The gardens are nicely arranged with accessible pathways and plenty of seating along the way if you need to rest. The docents are well-informed and ready to assist you. Grab a lunch and enjoy the gardens with your favorite people!

Had been here a few times before, but just recently bought their $40 annual membership. Totally worth it to be able to visit whenever and take a relaxing stroll through their gardens. Super friendly staff and great garden shop. Just wish the grounds were a little bigger!

We had a wonderful time at the gardens. We enjoyed all the succulents and cacti and loved being able to purchase from the nursery.

I would like to bring a friend of mine to visit your wonderful gardens. Due to Hospital errors she is in a wheelchair for the next 3 or 4 months. Do you have Wheelchairs there?? If not and we bring our own how is the walk for a wheelchair.

They do not have wheelchairs to my knowledge. the paths are wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs or scooters as long as you don't mind the gravel paths.

You Can call Ruth Bancroft Gardens when they are open, i think 10 to 4. They could definitely help answer this question.
