Tree Treks Map
Our Tree Treks map provides an overview of the parks to be traversed throughout the year. Each tree visited during a Tree Trek is mapped on the Tree Plotter platform which allows Trekkers to pull up eco-benefits information about the tree and its surroundings.
Simply click on the map, zoom in to a park you plan to visit, and select a tree (colored dot) to see its eco-benefits!
