About this event

Outdoors Family Friendly

Let’s go on a nature discovery walk together! We will practice looking closely at budding branches, discover spring sprouts, and find signs of animal life along the trails of Montshire’s Healing Forest. Meet the museum educator on the terrace after checking in with the admissions desk. Walk together on the Montshire’s gentle trails to connect with nature and bask in the benefits of the Healing Forest with your young forest bathers. Grounded in the science-backed practice of shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing, discover the wonders of nature together. We welcome all Parents, Grandparents, Caregivers, and their children on this Family Walk to the Healing Forest along Montshire’s accessible path. Join us in all weather… dress appropriately and make it part of the adventure!
