- Booking essential
This special Forest Bathing session will take place just after dawn on the longest day of the year and celebrate the festival of midsummer or the 'Summer Solstice'. Solstice means ‘light standing still’ and so is a perfect opportunity to take a slow, meditative walk through the majestic pine woods at Sutton Hoo During this 2-hour session you will be led by local Forest Bathing Guide, Charlotte Atkinson, who will encourage you to slow down, relax and connect with nature through your senses. You will be offered invitations to experience the woodland in different ways and the session will conclude with a tea ceremony.
