Join us for an illuminated hike through the paths of Big Foot Beach State Park, and enjoy our beautiful views! Treats & Drinks will be served, glow sticks will be handed out for the hike (while supplies last).
•Bonfire to follow hike, weather permitting
•This event is free, however park admission is $5, if you do not have a State Park 2025 sticker. There will be items available for sale at the event, cash and credit card are accepted
•Halloween costumes are not required, but there will be a "best costume" prize after the hike! This is some fun, non-scary Halloween fun for the whole family!
•Donations are welcome (which support the Big Foot Friends Group, who provide funds for maintenance, upgrades, and events in the park).
Please remind your children that the glow stick on the path are for looking and not touching, please leave them on the path.
Please do not use flashlights on the paths as it ruins the experience for others
Candlelight events are very popular at DNR properties, with some attracting thousands of visitors on a given night. Given the recent publicity of these events access to the park may be restricted at times when parking capacity has been reached. Parking inside the park is limited! The park has a total of 180 parking stalls; currently there is a lot of interest in the event. There is a possibility we will fill all spots. Carpooling is encouraged. Parking for cars and pickup trucks only - no trailers, bus, or RV parking. There is no roadside parking in the surrounding area. A 2024 Wisconsin State Park annual sticker or $5 Special Event sticker is required.
All cars attempting to enter after our parking capacity has been met (200 cars) will be turned away, please carpool.
