'Active Together' Forest Therapy Walk - Seawinds Gardens

Wed 4 Nov 9:45am - 12pm

Seawinds Gardens (Parks Victoria), Melbourne

Get 'Active Together' this November with 'FOREST THERAPY Mornington Peninsula'.

Join INFTA Accredited Forest Therapy Guide, Chloe, for a gentle walk through scenic Seawinds Gardens and surrounding bushland.

Over two hours you’ll step away from everyday life, quiet your mind and reconnect with nature.

Slow down, put your phone away and tune into the sights, sounds and scents of the forest. Chloe will guide you through simple sensory invitations designed to help you switch off, be present and notice the small moments of wonder around us.

Many people arrive feeling busy or mentally tired and leave feeling calmer, lighter and more grounded, with a clearer mind and renewed connection to nature.

You’ll also take home simple ways to stay active, connect with nature and make time for wellbeing in everyday life.

No fitness, mindfulness or outdoor experience required.

WHAT TO EXPECT

A slow 1–1.5 km walk through gardens and bushland

Simple sensory and nature-connection activities

Time to pause, sit and simply be

Seasonal observations and moments of quiet

A reflective tea ceremony

What is Forest Therapy?

Forest Therapy, or Shinrin-yoku (Forest Bathing), is an Evidence-Based Public-Health practice that invites you to slow down and experience nature through your senses. Unlike a bushwalk, the focus is not on distance or exercise, but on relaxation, presence and connection.

Make a day of it

Come alone or bring a friend. All welcome. Stay for a picnic under the trees or explore the gentle 1.9 km TC McKellar Track after your walk.

Small groups • Limited places • Ages 14+

Seawinds Gardens, Arthurs Seat • 2 hours

Full meeting point and what-to-bring information will be emailed after registration.
