The Arboretum at Newport Lakes Park is a quiet, landscaped section of the reserve that includes a diverse collection of exotic and native trees. It was one of the first areas to be rehabilitated from the former quarry in the 1970s, and it includes winding paths, open grassy areas, labelled trees, and benches, making it a peaceful place to stroll or relax. The arboretum adds a more garden-like atmosphere to Newport Lakes, with mature conifers, deciduous trees, and unusual species from across Australia and overseas.
