About this Event
Join Friends of Edgewood docents for a special night hike starting from the Bill and Jean Lane Education Center at Edgewood Park and Natural Preserve. Many parts of nature come alive as day moves into night. You’ll witness the changes that occur at Edgewood in the cool darkness of the evening. Will we hear bats fly overhead? Might we spot a scorpion or turret spider tower? Could there be a dusky footed woodrat hiding in the sticks? We never know what we will find, but this is your chance to experience Edgewood "after hours".
We will hike up the Sylvan Trail. We will cover about 3 miles, at a moderate pace. The hike will last 3 hours. Elevation gain is approximately 400 feet. This hike is geared toward adults and children 8 years of age or older (who are not afraid of the dark). All hikers should be prepared to stay with the group for the duration of the hike. Participants must stay with the docents at all times.
Wear sturdy shoes and dress in layers, it gets cooler after the sun goes down. Bring water and a flashlight. We will provide red filters for your flashlight, if you need them. Restrooms and water are available only at the picnic area near the Sylvan Trailhead. Please plan ahead.
All participants, including children, must be registered individually and have approved the liability waiver through Eventbrite. Details on where to meet will be emailed to participants before the event.
We will still hike in light showers, but heavy rain cancels this hike.
Group size is very limited. Please cancel your reservation if you are unable to attend so others may have a chance to join us.
