Shinrin Yoku: The Healing Benefits of Forest Bathing
Experience the ancient Japanese practice of Shinrin Yoku, or forest bathing, at Heritage Nature Reserve in Mauritius. This mindful nature experience helps you reconnect with your senses as you soak in the sights, scents and sounds of the forest.
Guided by our Reiki Master, you will walk barefoot on forest trails, listen to birdsong and feel the soothing breeze through the trees. This gentle, meditative experience is designed to promote mental clarity, reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality—allowing you to feel deeply grounded and rejuvenated.
Nature Wellness Walk: Mindfulness & Conservation
The Nature Wellness Walk is intended for guests who wish to explore the forest and learn about its unique biodiversity, the history of the 200-year-old Heritage Bel Ombre Estate and the Estate’s ongoing conservation projects. Your knowledgeable guide will help you see the forest through fresh eyes as they point out rare plants and birds and lead you to breath-taking viewpoints. The experience isn’t just an educational one, however; you’ll be guided through a series of stretching and breathing exercises, to immerse yourself in the energy of the Heritage Nature Reserve and let it flow through you.
Nature Trek: A Holistic Adventure in the Mauritian Wilderness
Would you like to cleanse and strengthen your body and mind while connecting to the beauty and vibrancy of a majestic, centuries-old forest? Heritage Resorts’ Nature Treks are holistic nature experiences that tend to every part of your being. Choose from three different treks — gentle, intermediate or vigorous — and enjoy either an active walk or a fascinating run in the unique Heritage Nature Reserve. Your trek will take you through undulating hills where the endemic Mauritian forest occasionally comes to offer dazzling views of the deep blue Indian Ocean. The view from the top is so scenic that you’ll have to pinch yourself to believe it.
Active Sea Walk Session: Rejuvenate with the Ocean’s Energy
With Active Sea Walking, the forest is replaced by the healing powers of the ocean, located a stone’s throw away from Heritage Le Telfair. Soak in the beneficial properties of saltwater while wading briskly against the current: the flow of water will help tone your muscles, detox your body, revitalise your metabolism and improve your circulation. The brisk sea air also helps clear out your lungs, while the combination of water and sunshine on your skin soothes your senses.
