Top Brussels Hiking Tours

Many of the top attractions in Brussels—including the Manneken Pis statue and the Grand Place—are within walking distance of one another, making it easy to see a lot in a short amount of time. However, finding your way through the historic center is easier with a guide. As you explore, listen to live commentary and take in the sights—rather than following your GPS.

This forest bathing program in the Sonian Forest is suitable for anyone who would like to smell, touch, hear, savor, see and feel nature deep within. We will meet at 9 am at the Sonian Forest and finish at 1 pm. In that time, we will carry out a five-step immersion in the forest and a final closing ceremony in which we will share our impressions. Forest bathing is as much an experience of the self and nature, as it is a meditative practice. Throughout the morning, we will work on ceremonial slow-pacing, and conscious attention, as well as tune into our senses and breath. As we do this, we will regain a sense of balance, bring our levels of anxiety down, enjoy simple details such as the rustle of leaves, and then have a chance to embrace the moment by sharing our impressions with the others in our group.
