Do you love the forest, rivers, land, and lakes; wish to de-stress; want all the health benefits that time in nature provides? Certified* guide, Marilyn Zehr, will assist in deepening your connection to this place.

Guided Forest Bathing is an intentionally slow and mindful walk in the forest inspired by Shinrin-Yoku, the Japanese practice of Forest Bathing.

You will be guided through a clearly defined series of open-ended invitations that will allow you to experience your surroundings more deeply with opportunities to share your observations/insights with fellow participants along the way. Every walk concludes with a wild-foraged tea and snack. 

Each walk is fit for all ages and most physical capacities. The walk may include uneven pathways, rocks, roots, and mud. If you would like access to our free All Terrain Assistive Technology (https://fourcornersalgonquin.myturn.com/library/) please email us directly at info@fourcornersalgonquin.ca.
