The Arboretum of Peer is 3.2 ha in size and consists of 3 parts (a northern part, the oak arboretum and a southern part), divided on the basis of the landscape view and the existing infrastructure. The Arboretum falls within the Resterheide area.

The northern part contains more special tree species. The oak arboretum (with smaller oaks) was planted in 2006 by students of the guidance centre Sint-Elisabeth. The initiative for this came from the municipality of Peer following the design of the forest trail.
