Scat, Tracks, and Animal Signs is this year’s theme for our lantern lit hike. Guides with lanterns will lead you down the kerosene lantern-lit trail to meet characters that will explore animal tracks and signs you might find as you are exploring the Itasca forest. This is a family-friendly evening hike.
Group hikes will last about 30 minutes, departing every ten minutes from the Jacob V. Brower Visitor Center. Registration for hikes begins at 6 p.m. The first hike leaves at 6:30 p.m. and the last hike will begin at 8:10 p.m. Hike times fills up fast, so make sure you register early.
Suitable for all ages! Hike length is approximately one-half mile. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Other activities will be ongoing, including music and a variety of children’s activities.
Notes: Dress for being outdoors in autumn. You are welcome to bring a flashlight during the hike, but are asked to keep it pointed at the ground.
