Mothers Day Special - Mindful Forest Walk
Kinglake, VIC
About this Adventure
Celebrate Mothers Day with a mindful forest walk in Kinglake National Park, and get tuned in to the feel of a Eucalypt forest in Autumn.
How does gifting your mother (or yourself!) some peace, quiet and nature connection for Mothers' Day sound?
You will be led by a guide both experienced and accredited, (and licenced as a Parks Vic. tour operator) in a beautiful and quieter section of Kinglake National Park called Andrews Hill.
The mindfulness based exploration of nature at this time of the changing of seasons makes this a unique time for a walk of this type.
No prior experience necessary. Easy grade, suitable for all fitness levels. Families welcome (teenage and older).
After the walk, those who'd like to continue the morning are welcome to join us at Philip Lobley Wines, a short drive away. Wood fired pizza, a glass of something local, and good company around a shared table. No agenda. Just a chance to settle in and let the day land. (Optional and at your own cost.)
📍 Island Creek picnic area, Kinglake National Park at 10 am.
