Come and discover the quiet Yin to the Tor's Yang - the magic of the marshes, where we'll take you through the ancient landscape of the Sweet Track, the UK's oldest pathway dating from the Neolithic period.
Following in the footsteps of our ancestors we'll explore plants that have grown here for thousands of years, the dragonflies and maybe a little Somerset folklore. With time to explore at your own pace, observing, sensing, and truly noticing the land beneath your feet. Along the way we’ll pause to tune into our surroundings, and reflect on this magical landscape for focused presence and connection with nature, with place, with self.

About Us
With backgrounds in mental health, retreats and nature-connected practice, Kate and Sam bring complementary
perspectives to their guided walking workshops. Sam’s expertise in emotional wellbeing and therapeutic facilitation is rooted in decades of community mental health work, while Kate’s experience in creative land connection, local plants and British mythology adds a rich sensory and storytelling dimension.
Together, they offer a balanced approach that supports a gentle exploration and meaningful connection to the
landscape. Their workshops are designed to be inclusive, grounded, and quietly transformative.
