Bay of Fires Nature Immersion
A CERES Global Trip
We invite you on a very special journey within the breathtaking Bay of Fires on the north-east coast of Tasmania. A 5 day nature immersion designed to collectively facilitate a state of quiet connection with ourselves, each other and the landscape. This is created through a mix of hiking between 2 – 5 hours a day, stories and conversations in nature, facilitated practices, yoga and meditation.
Let’s build a stunning silence. Open ourselves to sway in the language of stillness. Let's go back to that wide open space we may have forgotten how to name. Let's remember our intimate entanglement with the natural landscapes around us.
In finding anew our own synergy with the wild we can begin to remember ourselves.
This trip is partnership between CERES Global, naturelab42° and Nature's Apprentice.
Accommodation
We will be staying in the stunning Bay of Fires Lodge – a 5 star eco resort nestled in the coastal heath along the majestic sea shore. Set on a hilltop looking out to the pristine white sandy beaches, aqua blue sea and surrounded National Park, the Lodge is the only building on 20km of coastal wilderness.
The lodge is autonomous in providing and managing its existence combining simplicity of design with comfort.
All accommodation is twin share. Single travellers may be required to share a twin room with another person of the same gender or special requests for a single room can be arranged for an additional price.
Menu
The menu is crafted from as much Tasmanian grown produce as possible with a focus on yummy, simple recipes utilising food as medicine principles from a Naturopathic perspective.
We will also have a naturopath joining us giving the opportunity, for those who are interested, to incorporate herbal medicine into the daily experience.
