This one-day retreat blends cold water immersion, warming sauna rituals, woodcraft, and mindful foraging to restore balance to your body and mind. You’ll experience the healing power of natural elements while slowing down and tuning into the rhythms of the forest. Key Details Group size: 1–9 people Ages: 18+ Duration: 10am–3pm Location: Woodland site at Park in the Past, Wrexham Key Skills Safe fire lighting techniques Foraging for teas and natural remedies Outdoor cooking on an open fire Woodland tool use and whittling basics Using heat therapy to aid relaxation What to Expect Once everyone arrives and settles in, the day begins with a warm welcome and a wild herbal tea freshly brewed over the fire. You'll be invited to take part in a slow-paced foraging walk, learning about plants traditionally used for teas, oils, and gentle remedies. Along the way, your instructor will guide you in identifying useful species and show you how to gather them responsibly. Back at basecamp, you’ll move into the fire lighting session, using natural materials to build and light a group fire together. Midday is spent around the fire preparing and enjoying a simple lunch, cooked over the flames using traditional methods. While the food is cooking, there’s time to try whittling or woodland crafts using materials sourced from the surrounding area. The sauna is warmed throughout the day and opens in the afternoon. A shared bathing ritual follows, including heat, cold water rinses, and periods of quiet rest in the woods. The session closes with a short guided reflection before heading home. Location The retreat is held at Park in the Past, a unique outdoor heritage and nature space in Hope, near Wrexham, North Wales. This hidden gem includes a reconstructed Roman fortress, large freshwater lake, and quiet woodland trails. The site is managed for both conservation and education, offering a peaceful setting with excellent facilities including compost loos, covered spaces, and a fire circle. There is free parking and easy access from Chester, Mold, or Wrexham. Surrounded by trees and birdsong, the woodland area is set slightly apart from the main park and feels like a world of its own. Although remote in feel, the site is easily reached by car and sits within 10 minutes of the A55. Full joining details, including meeting point and what to bring, are provided on booking.

Guests tend to be individuals or pairs who want a break from fast-paced daily life. Some come with friends, others alone, and all are welcomed into a gentle, respectful space. There’s no need to arrive with prior knowledge or a particular goal. The day is about experiencing the moment rather than achieving something specific. Many leave feeling calm, refreshed, and more grounded. ### Will I be cold or uncomfortable outside all day? You’ll spend the full day outdoors, but the fire, shared activities, and sauna time help keep everyone warm. As long as you bring appropriate clothing, comfort is easy to maintain. We recommend layers, waterproofs, and a spare towel or two. If weather conditions become unsafe, the session will be rescheduled. ### Do I have to take part in the sauna or cold dip? Absolutely not. Both are offered, but optional. If you're more comfortable observing or resting by the fire, that’s encouraged too. This is your retreat, and nothing is forced. People often change their minds once they see how the sauna is run—calmly, privately, and without pressure. The cold dip is done individually or in pairs, never in a group setting. ### What type of food is served for lunch? Lunch is based on seasonal ingredients, often with a foraged or locally sourced focus. You’ll take part in preparing and cooking it over the fire, which adds to the relaxed pace of the day. Dietary needs can be catered for with notice, including vegetarian and gluten-free options. You’ll need to inform the organisers in advance if you have specific requirements. ### Is there a toilet on site? Yes, the woodland has access to a compost toilet and a simple washing station. While basic, they are well-kept and maintained for comfort. We suggest bringing your own hand sanitiser and a small towel if you prefer extra freshness after sauna use. ### What should I wear and bring? Comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing is essential. Think layers, waterproofs, and shoes suitable for muddy or uneven terrain. A swimsuit and towel are needed for the sauna. You might also want a water bottle, snacks, or a notebook. Everything else is provided for the activities, including craft materials and cooking equipment. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot-2025-07-22-130811.png - **Gallery image count**: 10 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
