Forest Bath + Frutillar

Shinrin yoku, also known as forest bathing, is a guided experience that immerses participants in a unique natural environment surrounded by lush forests, encouraging a deep connection with nature through all five senses. During this two-hour activity, individuals engage in smelling the fresh forest air, touching the textures of leaves and bark, tasting natural elements when appropriate, contemplating the serene landscape, and listening to the soothing sounds of wildlife and rustling trees. This mindful interaction with the environment not only promotes a profound sense of general well-being but also offers tangible health benefits. By absorbing phytoncides—natural volatile compounds released by trees—the practice helps reduce blood pressure, strengthen the immune system, and rejuvenate both body and mind, making Shinrin yoku a holistic approach to wellness grounded in nature’s healing power.
