Hi RodDeb
Is the ANBG open to all now, including the visitors centre/information desk?

Hi Michael, I can tell you, that the ANBG has had a partial and restricted reopening this week for Friends of the Garden members only. The VC and Cafe are not open, and many areas taped off, but there is a one way path along the Main Path. If this goes well the Gardens will be open to the general public, and hopefully the VC and Cafe will also reopen soon.

Sorry Michael, just saw your enquiry (we don't own a smartphone) we phoned the ANBG on Monday and were told it was open, they did not mention any entry conditions and there were no signs saying Friends of the Gardens member only (but we have a membership with them anyhow). Some members did receive an email with some conditions but we did not that is why we rang and we were told then that quite a few members had mentioned that they didn't receive an email either. My suggestion is to ring them to see if things have changed. As Christine above mentioned the VC and Café are not open and there are arrows on some paths but there is still plenty of places to go. Apologies again for the late reply and thank you very much Christine for your help.
