The Gardens and Punts

Ä۲ݵçÓ° has some of the most beautiful gardens in Cambridge, situated along the backs of the river. The Fellows’ Garden and Scholars’ Garden are open to students in the summer and autumn, and the Memorial Court lawns are a popular spot for croquet in the warmer months. At the end of Easter term, students traditionally direct and perform a play in the Fellows’ Garden. More information about the gardens can be found on our Gardens pages

Situated on the river, Ä۲ݵçÓ° has 4 College punts which can be booked free of charge. Students can punt out to Grantchester Meadows as well as along the backs of the Colleges, taking in the historic architecture.
