Salem Forest Lore Tour

Overview

Unlike any walking tour in Salem, the Forest Lore Tour takes you outside the heart of downtown and into one of the few remaining wild places in the area, where you learn from a practicing Witch, what it means to experience real magic, why nature is so important, and how to incorporate ancient knowledge into modern life.

Wear your hiking boots and bring your curiosity! This is a one-mile, guided hike that takes to you the crossroads of science, history, and philosophy in Salem Woods. Rain or shine, but we can't operate in snow due to trail conditions.

If you enjoy hiking, history, and/or nature this is the tour for you. It’s a nice change from the city going on a walk through the old Salem woods. The tour guide was nice, knowledgeable, and engaging. Even as a practicing witch I was able to learn quite a bit on this tour. Highly recommend.

This is a MUST if you are going to visit Salem, MA. The tour guide, Uni, was absolutely awesome. She was knowledgeable, informative and really cares for nature and the forest. I loved the little gift bag she handed out. She answered every question my husband and I had. I highly HIGHLY recommend!!! Thank you Uni for an awesome time
