Introductory Course in Forest Bathing in Ausseerland
General Information
Back to Nature - Forest Bathing in the Ausseerland region
Forest bathing (Shinrin-Yoku) is more than a walk – it is a conscious dive into the healing atmosphere of the forest. Step by step, you leave everyday life behind, slow down, and open your senses: You hear the gentle rustling of leaves, inhale the scent of moss and wood, feel the ground beneath your feet, and the play of light and shadow between the trees.
With simple, guided mindfulness exercises, you reconnect with yourself. Thoughts can quiet down, the body relaxes, and new clarity and energy arise. The forest has a completely natural effect – calming, strengthening, and inspiring at the same time.
The introductory courses with nature and experiential educator Jürgen Freller from Raus in die Natur are an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the power of nature. In the powerful forests of Ausseerland, a short break or a conscious nature experience awaits you with the introductory course or more intensive sessions available upon request.

FAQ / good to know
Do I need to be athletic or particularly fit?
No. Forest bathing is not hiking and not a sports activity. We cover only short distances at a leisurely pace and consciously take time to pause. The focus is on relaxation, mindfulness, and experiencing nature.
Is the introductory course held in all weather conditions?
Basically yes. The forest has its own charm in any weather. With appropriate clothing, even light rain or cooler temperatures can enrich the nature experience. Only in the case of strong storms or thunderstorms will the appointment be postponed for safety reasons.
What can I expect during forest bathing?
You can expect mindful nature experiences, conscious walking, small sensory and perception exercises, as well as moments of silence. There are no athletic challenges and no performance goals – just time for you and nature.
Can I participate alone?
Of course. Many participants come alone and enjoy the opportunity to fully engage with themselves and nature. Couples, friends, or small groups are also warmly welcome.
