Dear nature lovers,

We meet again in the heart of nature, this time for a hike that surprises us at sunset, in the mountains. We propose a leisurely trail from Păltiniș to Poiana Găujoara. Along the trail, through the pine and fir forest and in the meadow, we will make several stops for forest bathing, grounding practices, and yoga to relax our spine and joints, allowing thoughts to flow freely like the river during meditations, and to release stress and worries.

At sunset, we will enjoy a small tasting, stories, and a meditation session around the fire. Thus, in our awareness hike, we will engage all senses: sight, hearing, smell, touch, taste, and the four elements (earth, water, air, fire).
