This Guided Forest Bathing walk will be held in the Contemplation Glade next to the Glen Nevis Visitor’s Centre.
Please note that there is a charge for parking in the Visitor’s Centre car park. The cost is £2 for 1 hour and £6 for longer than 1 hour. If transport is an issue please email me.
We will meet outside the Visitor’s Centre just before 1pm and we will be connecting with nature for about 2 to 3 hours. The terrain is almost completely flat and the path is well maintained. We will not be walking either far or fast and so mobility problems are not an issue if you would like to give this a try, but all activities will be tailored to needs of the group.
Forest Bathing involves walking slowly and leisurely through the woodland, immersing yourself in the natural environment and mindfully using all your senses. People often find it physically, psychologically and emotionally beneficial to spend time bathing in the atmosphere of the trees.
This guided Forest Bathing walk will last between two and three hours, but in this time we only walk about a mile. During this time, Hugh (your Forest Bathing Guide) will periodically stop to offer Forest Bathing ‘Invitations’. These are activities intended to encourage you to connect with the natural world through your different senses, heightening your sensory awareness and increasing your nature-connection.
We end each walk with the Forest Bathing practice ‘Sit Spot’ and a Tea Ceremony with a cup of locally foraged tea.
This walk will be delivered FREE OF CHARGE as part of a Green Health Grant that we have received, although booking is required, and includes a complimentary copy of one of our Forest Bathing Booklets. You will need to book before 10am on the day of the walk.
