Winter Solstice Hike

  • Gales Pond County Park 49 East Filmore Road Hart, MI, 49420 United States (map)

Join staff on this hike to welcome in the longest night of the year. We will walk the accessible boardwalk across the pond and continue through forest, stopping to use all of our senses to embrace the coming darkness. We will be still and take in all of the inhabitants of the ecosystem as the dark approaches. Following the hike we will bask in the warmth and light of being in community together around a fire. Although we will be in a County Park, it is recommended that you wear hunter orange any time you are in the forest during fall and winter hunting seasons.
