Nature Connection Guided Walk - Royal National Park - Balconies of Bundeena

An experience designed to slow you down, ground your senses, and immerse you in the sights, sounds, and rhythms of nature.

Step off the Cronulla ferry and into the wild beauty of the Royal National Park. Join us for a gentle and enriching guided walk in the stunning coastal village of Bundeena, just a scenic ferry ride from Cronulla. This guided walk is an opportunity to slow down, connect with nature, and explore the hidden beauty of the Royal National Park.

Led by a Certified Forest Therapy Guide, you’ll be gently guided along quiet trails and secluded coastal paths. Along the way, you’ll engage in simple sensory, creative, and movement-based nature connection practices, designed to deepen your experience of the natural world.

This is not a hike, but a moderate walk with some stairs and inclines - perfect for those looking to increase their step count without strenuous activity.
