**Location**
The Yoga Garden is located in a stunning wild-flower meadow, within the 3,500 acre rewilding project on the Knepp Estate, it is a dedicated haven to practice yoga within nature. It is truly a nurturing environment for you body and mind, where you can hear incredible bird song and leave feeling reconnected and re-energised.

**Knepp Estate**

Knepp is a 3,500 acre estate just south of Horsham, West Sussex. Since 2001, the land – once intensively farmed - has been devoted to a pioneering rewilding project. Using grazing animals as the drivers of habitat creation, and with the restoration of dynamic, natural water courses, the project has seen extraordinary increases in wildlife. Extremely rare species like turtle doves, nightingales, peregrine falcons and purple emperor butterflies are now breeding here; and populations of more common species are rocketing.

After lunch we will explore the magical Knepp Estate by foot and take a leisurely peaceful 4.5km walk, hopefully seeing some of Knepp’s free-roaming animals which include, cattle, ponies and pigs. Also visiting some of the viewing-platforms, close to public footpaths, which offer wonderful panoramas of the surrounding countryside.

**Getting there**
There is plenty of free parking on site, I will try try to organise car pooling to help reduce the environmental impact. There is also the option of getting the train, nearest station is horsham, 20 minutes by taxi to the Yoga Garden. If you want to make a weekend of it there are some lovely local pubs with rooms or airbnbs.
