About
The Scott Arboretum covers the Swarthmore College campus and is free and open dawn to dusk every day. Paved campus walkways make it easy with a stroller. Kids can pick up a seasonal scavenger hunt from the brochure box outside the Cunningham House, and the arboretum posts Toddler Trots and Trail Adventures video guides. Picnicking is permitted if you carry out trash. Park in the Wister Center, Ben West or DuPont lots or on Cedar Lane and College Avenue. The adjacent Crum Woods trails are unpaved.
