| At Better Than Unicorns we seek the most curious souls, those who ask questions, those who dare to make demands, and those who can’t resist exploring ideas old or new…
If that’s you, get your things packed… for adventure awaits! We want to make the VR journey as accessible as possible. The experience we’re committed to sharing with as many people as possible is aNUma, a psychedelic-like journey where you can experience the most unique moments of life… from the oneness in us all to experiencing the fullness of the field surrounding each of us. If you own your own headset, simply email us for an invitation to our twice monthly, guided experiences in aNUma. If you don’t own a headset, you can rent one from us for 24 hours. |

|
|
| Want to come in to the studio with a few friends to explore the wider world of the metaverse? Book a party with us for up to six folks.
Get in for your next team building experience, combining our decades of experience in coaching, experiential education and facilitating containers for transformation in one powerful 90-minute session. |

Hit the trails and learn more about The North Carolina Arboretum’s botanically diverse forest with a guided trail walk! April through October, this free hiking program is led by trained volunteer guides who take small groups of participants along woodland trails and through a variety of forest types. Depending on the season and each guide’s area of expertise, topics of discussion may include wildflowers, plant and tree identification, natural history and more.
Guided trail walks are limited to 15 people, including the guide, and are not recommended for guests under 16 years of age. Groups depart from the Baker Visitor Center Lobby on Tuesdays at 1 p.m. and Saturdays at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m..
Walks last 1.5 – 2.5 hours, are approximately one to two miles in length. As this program is held rain or shine, all participants should dress appropriately for the weather.
There is no pre-registration; walks are first-come first served and sign up sheets are located in the Baker Visitors Center.
Walks are FREE; however, donations to The North Carolina Arboretum Society are appreciated. Regular parking fees apply. Arboretum Society Members always park free.
