The experience starts at 11.00 am over a kaihũri (calabash) of hot traditional fermented porridge our guests are entertained by the center’s traditional folk music as we warm up for the tour.

Here you also get to identify and learn about the indigenous plants/trees and shrubs as you learn how they are traditionally used. The trail also provides space for meditation and relaxation under the beautiful shrubs, scenic and
serene spots for book readers and writers
