About forest bathing

Not a hike, not a nature walk. Forest bathing is a gentle and immersive way to re-experience nature, place, self and others. Accompanied by a certified forest therapy guide, you will go on a nature-connected journey that offers both structure and openness, allowing your unique experience and stories to unfold. Evidence-based, forest bathing has been proven to benefit physical, mental and emotional well-being.
