Guide and Safety

For your safety, a guide is required for your walk, and you must follow their instructions. The fee varies based on the package selected. As a popular activity, we recommend booking your forest walk the night before to ensure a fresh early morning start, although guides can also be arranged on short notice. Walkers must give way to golfers and avoid causing any disruption. For payment, please consult the front desk officer.
