Details

Our Guided Hikes.
Forest Therapy is a research-based framework for supporting healing and wellness through immersion in forests and other natural environments. Forest Therapy is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, which translates to “forest bathing.” Studies have demonstrated a wide array of health benefits, especially in the cardiovascular and immune systems, and for stabilizing and improving mood and cognition.
Historic Hike learn about the history of Gwynn Oak Amusement Park and the Civil Rights movement. See the Gwynn Falls and immerse yourself in nature and wildlife.
