Late-summer Forest Bathe

Relax and connect with nature through a guided, meditative walk by the river and through the pinewoods.

Early August is a time to celebrate the late summer festival of Lughnasa being halfway between the summer solstice and the autumn equinox. Join Charlotte, our resident Forest Bathing guide, for a relaxed afternoon stroll through the pinewoods and by the river. During the session we will practice what is known in Japan as Shinrin-Yoku or Forest Bathing where your guide will offer you a series of invitations to encourage you to slow down, relax and connect with nature through your senses. The experience will conclude with a tea ceremony in the majestic pine woodland.

Please note:

  • Head to the Visitor Welcome point. The team will then gather the group in the courtyard before the event begins.
  • Please wear sturdy shoes and lots of warm layers as we will be moving very slowly. You might want to bring a small camping stool if you are unable to sit on the ground (sit mats will be provided)
  • Unfortunately, due to uneven surfaces, this experience is not wheelchair friendly.
  • This event is most suitable for adults and children aged 14 and above.
