Escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and connect with nature and yourself on this mindful hike.
We're taking you just one hour away from Toronto to one of the remaining intact forests in the Oak Ridges Moraine. This area is renowned for its oak forests and dramatic ridges created by glacial activity. We'll be setting out on an easy 7 KM trail that will take us through forest ridges, wetlands and meadows.
Be fully present with your surroundings, leave stress behind, and rediscover the calm within. As we set out on this journey we'll help you tune into the sights, sounds, and sensations of the natural world, including:
Nature Observation: Pause and observe the intricate details of nature, from the smallest insects to the grandeur of ancient trees.
Silent Contemplation: At various points along the trail, enjoy moments of silence to reflect and connect with your inner self.
Sound Meditation: Tune in to the sounds of the forest, from birdsong to rustling leaves, and use these natural rhythms as anchors for your mindfulness practice.The first half of this hike will focus on personal reflection, while the second half will more closely resemble one of our typical hikes, giving us an opportunity to share our experience with others.
This hike is moderately challenging with inclines, declines and easy boardwalks. We'll rest and eat lunch along the route, taking in the dense forest and critters that call it home.
