Reconnect with nature: Forest bathing experience - Brownsea Island
Escape to the tranquil woodlands of Brownsea Island and discover the restorative practice of forest bathing.
This gentle, mindful walk through nature invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the natural world around you.
Forest bathing, or Shinrin-yoku, is a Japanese wellness tradition that encourages you to engage all your senses in the forest environment.
It’s not about hiking or fitness, it’s about being present, noticing the details, and letting nature soothe your mind and body.
Spending time in nature like this has been shown to reduce stress, lift your mood, improve sleep, and boost overall wellbeing.
It’s a simple yet powerful way to feel more grounded, refreshed, and connected.
After the walk enjoy a delicious picnic lunch. Ticket price includes boat fare, entry, guided walk experience and lunch
