If we were here, we'd either be walking down this path or already sitting at the end, reading a Jane Austen novel. Have a great garden path already? Upload a photo to your profile and share it with us! Or keep strolling through the latest collection of beautiful garden paths.

If you are impatient for a beautiful path, you have options! One option is to plant fast-growing trees such as birch, poplar, aspen or willow. They do not have as grand of a presence as oaks, walnut or hemlock, but they give the same feel of a towering allée. Make sure to cut off any side branches under 10-12 feet for a high canopy. If you leave all of the branches to grow, the path will seem like a forest as opposed to an allée. Also notice the entrance created by the two sections of fence in the foreground. This entrance area gives the stroller a stopping and starting point similar to the large trees used in the goldenrod field.

A gentle path through trees and grasses leads to a sitting spot. It's about as simple as it can be, yet it's highly effective.

Simple. Easy to build. Permeable. Sustainable. Inexpensive. What’s not to love? This naturalistic mulch path, with 100 percent recycled content, is über-inviting. Strong geometry executed with relaxed materials provides the best of all worlds: a direct path between points A and B and an invitation to linger.

Journey's end. This path leads through a stand of trees where only dappled light illuminates, and it continues toward a distant, sunnier spot in the landscape. By creating a walkway through the trees, a series of strong lines is emphasized and the low, L-shape bench becomes the natural focal point.

A rustic garden path forms an allée with a grove of birch trees leading to a low garden wall.

A walk thru our woods?

We need treed spaces to wander in along with gardens for food and water features for calm and meditation...and perhaps, exercise...
