Inspired by shinrin-yoku, the Japanese tradition of forest bathing.Forest therapy trails are usually about a mile and a half in length.
During the walk, visitors are guided to inhale deeply, listen to the water, listen to nature or observe their surroundings, perhaps looking for a "place to sit," touch a tree or close their eyes, explore the smells around them, or for others, the trail is a place to unwind.

The more deeply we connect to the natural world, the more likely we are to make good choices in our lives and support natural areas, fostering creativity and health.
