Vi befinner oss bland träden. Under våra fötter breder rötter ut sig, stadiga stammar reser sig från marken och vecklar ut sina kronor ovan oss. Tiden går. I skogen finns flera tider samtidigt, och vår upplevelse av skogen formas av vilken tidsuppfattning vi själva befinner oss i. I den här ljudvandringen får du uppleva skogen genom tre olika tider: kretsloppets tid som virvlar varv genom årstider
