The first forest bathing workshop in the Wiedtal for this season starts on Sunday, 1.5.2022 from 10 am to 1 pm. The Touristik-Verband Wiedtal e.V. offers the event in the Rhine-Westerwald Nature Park with relaxation trainer Beate Eulenbach. She leads the group along a forest trail of approx. 5.5 km with an elevation gain of approx. 130 meters in the Fockenbachtal valley near Niederbreitbach. In doing so, she raises awareness of the forest as a place of strength and recreation. Special breathing and relaxation techniques intensify the experience.
The focus is on slowing down and well-being. "Shinrin Yoku" means immersion in the forest atmosphere. It can strengthen the immune and cardiovascular systems and reduce stress. And it is particularly good in the forests around the state-approved climatic health resorts in the Wiedtal.
Participation is only possible with advance registration by 29.4. at info@wiedtal.de or by phone 02638-4017. Participation costs €24.00 per person incl. nature park hiking map and forest surprise. The starting point is the hiking parking lot in Fockenbachtal, where the circular trail also begins. Further dates this season are 12.6., 3.7., 7.8., 4.9. and 9.10.
