Forest Therapy Fridays

Discover the restorative power of nature with a free introductory Forest Therapy experience at Conner Prairie on Fridays! Guided by a certified forest therapy guide, these mini-sessions invite you to slow down, engage your senses, and reconnect with the natural world-all on Indiana's first and only certified Forest Therapy trail. Experience a peaceful escape and get a glimpse of the full Forest Therapy program, designed to promote mindfulness and well-being. Audience: This program is for anyone who enjoys slow, mindful, and intentional time spent in nature. All ages are welcome! Access considerations: Meet your guide for this program near the tram turnaround behind the Museum Experience Center. This out-and-back stroll will take place on a mix of crushed gravel, wooden steps, and grass surfaces. From the Museum Experience Center, we will stroll along a wide, crushed-gravel path. We will descend wooden steps next to the Conner House and down a grassy hill. Benches are located near the Conner House. This is a rain-or-shine program; please dress accordingly and bring comfort items as needed (i.e. sunblock, hat, water) . Restrooms are available in the Museum Experience Center and include accessible stalls. There may be an option to navigate a paved trail to access this program.
