May Nearly Full Moon Hike

Rangers will lead an hour-long hike under the nearly full moon. This hike will be taken at a leisurely pace with 3 educational stops. There is some rough terrain and slight elevation changes, as well as some stairs. We try to be guided only by the light of the moon, but flashlights are acceptable if necessary. This event happens before the actual full moon because it’s position in the sky is more easily observed with telescopes on these days.

After the hike, we will spend the last hour touring the Allegheny Observatory and viewing the moon through a telescope. Registration is required so we can notify you of cancellations.

***This is a weather dependent event and will be cancelled if it’s too cloudy
