Botaniska offers a variety of horticultural expression and beauty. Gothenburg deserves its place on the botanical world map for these features and also for its unique collection of bulbs and tubers, all gathered wild. They can be seen for example in the Rock Garden, and are at their loveliest when blooming in the spring.

Welcome to the Gothenburg Botanical Garden! Here are some things that may be useful to know when planning your trip.
Entrance fee
30 SEK per adult visitor. Upon arrival, the group leader or tour operator submits their documentation for invoicing at the Visitor Center. An invoice for the entrance fee will then be sent.
The following information must be included on the voucher:
• Customer name • Number of paying guests • Customer reference • Address • Postal code • City • Country • Organization number or personal identification number
The Visitor Center is open every day 10am–6pm between March and October. During the rest of the year, the opening hours are weekdays 11am–5pm and weekends 12am–4pm.
If you only wish to visit the garden on your own, you do not need to pre-book your visit.
Dogs are not allowed into the garden during March until September.
The reason why dogs are not allowed into the garden this time of year is that the Botanical Garden, apart from other gardens and parks, have a very extensive, fragile and unique plant material. Think of the garden as a museum. The vulnerability is especially at its peak during the growing period.
During rest of the year dogs are welcome on leash.
