Like our Night Hikes but earlier! Join us for an evening hike to learn all about dusk happenings at The Ridges and walk our trails during the golden hour. We will learn about the creatures that become active around sunset. This program is perfect for families and those who don’t want to stay out too late. Please do not bring any flashlights, light-up shoes, etc. as we want our eyes to adjust to the dark and to be able to see just as the animals do at night. Suitable for all ages.

There are TWO night hikes offered per Friday. Please be sure to check the DATE and TIME of the hike you are registering for. Evening Hikes are offered at an earlier time than Night Hikes.
