The session includes building a shelter, foraging, outdoor cooking and adventure games. Ideal for children and young people who enjoy outdoor adventure and families who wish to develop the abilities of their children to understand and manage risk on a safe and supervised environment and in a fun way.

Forest Bathing Experience: Wednesday 26 August: 10.30AM to 12.30PM

Step away from the rush of everyday life and immerse yourself in the calm of nature. Join us in Davagh Forest for a deeply restorative Forest Bathing experience designed to help you slow down and reconnect with yourself.  You will be immersed in the woodlands to take part in a series of sensory meditations; sound, smell, sight, touch and even taste to help you slow down and reconnect with nature in a very deep and profound way. The immersion will be led by Tony Bailie who is one of the few qualified Forest Therapy practitioners working on the island of Ireland.
