Hakone, Japan

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

I have another forest bathing tour which have been popular over the past few years. It is relaxing and entertaining, involving some walking exercise. At the same time, I was also feeling an increasing demand for forest bathing which focuses more on the senses and requires less walking. After researching several different locations in the Hakone area, I found this forest which is ideal for the new yet authentic Shinrin-Yoku experience. In this activity, no need to walk up or down. The site is mostly flat so that anyone can join without much worry. In between your busy sightseeing days, you can stop by the lakeshore in Hakone to refresh your body and soul.

What to expect

We will visit a beautiful forest which have been protected together with a legendary Shinto shrine by Lake Ashi. In a peaceful corner of this forest, I will help you feel the forest using your five senses, to immerse yourself in the time that flows over hundreds of years.
In the end, by getting a sense of the value of the forest which have been so important to Japanese people and culture, you will have a better idea of what Shinrin-Yoku in Japan is about.
