This peaceful 1.5-mile loop begins at the first parking lot of the Kent Lake unit and invites visitors to experience the trail by the soft glow of lanterns and moonlight.
This self-guided hike is open from 6:00 to 9:00 PM, with lanterns being removed promptly at 9:00. Flashlights and headlamps are not permitted in order to preserve the natural ambiance of the event. Leashed dogs are welcome and encouraged to join the adventure.
No registration is necessary. A Recreation Passport is required for park entry. Bring friends, family, and a spirit of quiet wonder for this unique nighttime experience in nature.
