The Woodland Wellness Walk at Stricklands Glen takes place in Bangor on Tuesday 24 November 2026.

It offers a gentle hour outdoors with time to notice the woodland and connect with other walkers.

The slow-paced session combines mindful walking, simple breathing and awareness exercises, and optional conversation. The organiser says there may be gentle music or sound along the route. Participants can join in at their own pace. There is no pressure to speak or take part in every activity.
