Spiritual Hike 24km - Satsang & Deep Tea

A Walk Between Worlds:
Villers-la-Ville to Genval
25km with Alan Watts

We’re walking 24km from the abbey ruins of Villers-la-Ville back to Genval, with a reading of Alan Watts along the way. The reading takes the form of a Satsang and Jnana yoga, an invitation to sit with the words, let them resonate, and share what arises in us as we walk together.

If you will rather come by car and keep things flexible, you're welcome to park at our place in the morning.

What to bring

Good walking shoes, water, a packed lunch or something for the lunch break, layers for the weather, and an open presence. The walk is long but the pace is contemplative, we’re not racing, we’re listening.
