Full Day Nature Walk
Group size: 2–4 people
Start time: 8:00am - 6:00pm
Duration: approximately 10 hours
Includes: Guided walk, pre-ordered lunch, water refills, local knowledge and interpretation.
This full-day experience is designed for guests who enjoy a steady day on foot and want to experience a wide range of natural environments. The walk moves through forest, river valleys, and more open terrain, with time to pause, observe, and learn along the way.
The pace is intentional but never rushed, with regular breaks for interpretation, photography, and rest. The focus remains on understanding the landscape rather than pushing for distance or speed.
Price: $465 per person
Half Day Nature Walk
Duration: 4.5 hours (morning or afternoon)
Group size: 2–4 people
Includes: Guided walk, water refills, plant-focused interpretation.
The Curious Wanderer is a shorter, gentler nature walk designed for those who want to slow down and focus on the finer details of the landscape. This experience stays within lower-elevation environments where native plants, textures, seasonal changes, and ecological relationships can be explored in depth.
The pace is unhurried and conversational, with plenty of time for questions, observation, and quiet moments. Distance covered is shorter, making this an ideal option for a lighter day outdoors.
Price: $275 per person
The morning Tour is from 8:00am–12:30pm.
The Afternoon tour is from 1:30pm–6:00pm.
