Guided Sensory Snowshoeing Walks
Saturday, January 13th 1:00pm - 3:00pm
Saturday, February 17th 1:00pm - 3:00pm
Discover the magic of an Adirondack winter forest. Immerse yourself in all the sights, sounds, scents and textures of nature. This two-hour modest snowshoe walk will take place on the gentle trails that surround The Wild Center (snowshoes will be provided for free). Sensory Snowshoeing combines time for exploration with guided sensory activities.

Sensory Snowshoeing is a winter version of the wellness practice of Forest Bathing. Translated from the Japanese Shinrin-Yoku, it means immersing your senses in the atmosphere of nature.

Certified Forest Therapy Guide Suzanne Weirich will lead you on this relaxing journey, inviting you to recover from the stress of daily life. Research studies have shown that it can lower blood pressure and levels of the stress hormone cortisol, as well as improve our immune system’s ability to fight infection and cancer.
