It is this opportunity for immersion in Nature—the sense of relaxing and being cleansed— that gives “Forest Bathing” its name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Forest Bathing walks are creatively \u003cspan\u003ecurated and led by \u003c\/span\u003ecertified Shinrin Yoku\/Forest Bathing guide, Tracey Cook. Tracey will introduce you to the origins and techniques of this Japanese-inspired wellness practice, and skillfully guide you through a fully immersive experience. Over the course of 2 hours, you will notice your capacity for wonder refreshed and your sense of connectedness to Nature awakened, as you are guided in this playful, mindful practice of softening open to receive the healing gifts of the natural world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a culture of constant hurry, overwhelm, and perpetual distraction, where so much is vying for our attention in every moment, this Forest Bathing walk is like a sigh of relief, like time out of time. You will be invited to slow down, and supported in reclaiming your scattered attention as you mindfully attune to the simple pleasures of Nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForest Bathing is not just a walk in the woods. It’s not hiking. The practice invites some meandering at an easy relaxed pace, with no need to cover any great distance. The point is not to “get there,” but to “be here, now.” Beautiful Beacon Hill Park is not just a pretty backdrop for this practice, but an active participant in a shared, relational experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForest Bathing is not a naturalist excursion. It’s not about learning botanical names or fun facts about the local ecology. Instead, it offers us the opportunity to de-emphasize thinking in favour of just noticing…deeply noticing and delighting in the ways Nature can reach in through our senses and increase our sense of aliveness to the degree that we allow ourselves to open and receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 2 hour morning Forest Bathing tour is sure to leave you both feeling deeply grounded, fabulously uplifted, refreshed and readied for the rest of your day. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tours_detail_body\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"detail_block\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTour Includes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"hightlits-tour\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 guided hours in Beacon Hill Park\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLocally wild-crafted herbal tea and a mindful taste of a local treat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tours_detail_body\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"detail_block\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLocation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003caddress\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eStarts and ends at the Cameron Bandshell, Beacon Hill Park\u003c\/address\u003e\n\u003caddress\u003e\u003c\/address\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"detail_block\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCost\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"hightlits-tour\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e$65 + tax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrivate tour $400 + tax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24 hour cancellation policy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tours_detail_body\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"detail_block\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlease arrive 10 minutes early.  Forest bathing walking tours will begin promptly at the schedule time. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003eRuns rain or shine—please dress for the weather!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003eAbout 1 km of easy walking over even, grassy terrain.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003eMaximum capacity 12 people, minimum 4\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003eOpen to ages 14+\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003eNo dogs please\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003eCan accommodate wheelchairs and mobility aids\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hidden Victoria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":71084165038102,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0002\/5264\/1302\/files\/ChatGPT_Image_May_28_2026_11_51_06_AM.png?v=1780526614","url":"https:\/\/hiddenvictoria.ca\/products\/forest-bathing","provider":"Hidden Victoria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
