Campus Tree Walk- The UW-Eau Claire campus arboretum was established during the university’s centennial year (2016) with the Centennial - One Hundred Trees Project. The creation of the arboretum was one of several steps that led to UW-Eau Claire's designation as a Tree Campus Higher Education college by the Arbor Day Foundation. Open to the public, the arboretum consists of 177 acres of developed land plus 230 acres in the Putnam Park natural area that surrounds the campus. The campus grounds department has formally identified over 100 species of trees, 70 shrubs and 200 perennials.
