Need a refresh before the school year gets in to the hustle and bustle? Take some time for yourself to enjoy a sunset Forest Therapy immersive experience.

This program will combine the relaxing, sensory walk of Forest Therapy and with water interactions and the option of using a Stand Up Paddleboard to get closer to the water.

While typically there is a fee for this program, we are offering this as an introduction to Forest Therapy. Bring a friend or come by yourself to slowdown, unplug, and get in touch with your senses.

What is Forest Therapy?
Warren County Conservation offers nature & forest therapy guided walks throughout the year at various locations. We invite you to unplug, slow down, and experience mindfulness in nature. These gentle three-hour walks will focus on using all your senses to explore nature. Shinrin-yoku or forest therapy can provide many positive health benefits such as lowered blood pressure, decreased anxiety, increased focus, relaxation, and a connection with nature. Staff is certified with the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Association.
