60% more creative output
Stanford research shows walking increases creative thinking by 60%. Add a forest environment that lowers cortisol within 20 minutes and you get the conditions where real ideas happen.
Side by side, not face to face
Walking synchronizes physiological rhythms between two people. Conversations flow naturally when you're moving in the same direction. No conference room pressure, no performative eye contact.
Structure creates depth
Most networking is aimless small talk. Choosing a conversation format before you walk means both people arrive with intention and leave with something useful.
This started as a personal practice. Weekly forest walks with new people, no agenda, no business goal. Just walking and talking. What I noticed: the best conversations of my professional life happened on those walks. Not in meeting rooms. Not on video calls. On muddy trails, side by side, with someone I'd never met before.
Waldgang turns that practice into something others can access. The conversation formats give it structure. The matching gives it relevance. The forest gives it honesty.
