Second Annual Little Light Challenge

About the Event

Experience the magic of winter under starlit skies with our Night Hike Adventure, scheduled for December 21, 2026. As daylight fades into twilight, participants will gather at dusk to embark on an enchanting journey through the woods. Equipped with headlamps, hikers will navigate the trails as darkness descends, offering a unique perspective of nature's beauty after sunset.
The hike is designed for all skill levels and welcomes both seasoned night walkers and those new to this exhilarating experience. The route meanders through serene forest paths, where participants can enjoy the tranquil ambiance and listen to the sounds of winter. With minimal light pollution, stargazers will have a chance to marvel at the brilliance of the stars above.
This event is more than just a hike; it's an opportunity to connect with nature in a different way, embracing the peacefulness that comes with nightfall on one of the shortest days of the year.
Participants should dress warmly and bring their own headlamps or flashlights. The trail offers a gentle terrain suitable for all hikers, ensuring everyone can partake in this memorable evening adventure.
