Forest Bathing at the Lake Superior Zoo

Monday, June 22, 2026 from 9:30-11:30 a.m. Explore and be inspired while forest bathing at the Lake Superior Zoo. Different from a nature hike, being fully in the present moment gently awakens awe and discovery. Technology is set aside to plug into the healing and calming power of nature. During the 2 hour session a series of guided invitations are intermixed with walking slowly, sitting in silence, mindfully observing nature, and sharing what is witnessed. There is a mix of solo and group time. The session concludes with tea and light snacks. Return home to your place of belonging as part of what is wonderfully wild. $40 per person, or $70 for one youth and accompanying adult. Pre-registration with payment required.
