The University of Manchester cherishes its green spaces and trees and staff, students and the local community can enjoy access to over 1,500 trees including over 50 different species, all giving something different and performing valuable jobs.

The Tree Trail is a project led by the Environmental Sustainability team and is designed to encourage people to get out and enjoy the physical and mental benefits of walking, mindful reflection and to learn something new about the trees that they may see every day. This project is part of the University’s Campus Masterplan, creating world-class facilities for staff, students and visitors to enjoy.
