Wild Wanderings is a series of nature journaling walks designed to help you connect with—and immerse in—our local environment.
Held in the beautiful Birdsland Reserve and led by local artists and experts in native ecosystems, each walk uses art and knowledge as a catalyst to slow down and deeply engage with nature.
By mindfully documenting your personal observations of the natural world, and by taking part in activities that will engage the senses (walking, observing, drawing, listening, touching…), get ready to experience the Dandenong Ranges like never before!
