Hunter's Moon Hike

  • Strawberry Hill Foundation 1537 Mount Hope Road Fairfield United States (map)

Join us for a free nighttime nature hike under the Full Hunter’s Moon!

Let yourself experience the fall forest in a whole new way. Take a deep breath. The air is crisp and lovely this time of year, carrying a hint of sassafras and pine. The crunch of leaves echoes as you wander the twisting paths. Join us as we use our senses to explore the hidden corners of the forest under the Hunter’s Moon!

Also - October’s full moon is the third of four super full moons in 2024! When a full moon takes place when the moon is near its closest approach to Earth, it is called a Super Full Moon. Join us as we explore this astrological phenomenon and learn what it means for life on Earth.

The guided hike will start at 7:30pm and last about 60 minutes. We will have a limited number of flashlights to handout so please bring one if you can.

For Scouts: This program meets the requirements for the following badges - Junior Trail Adventure, Senior Science Expert, Brownies Bugs, and Cadette Night Owl. You will receive a certificate of completion from Strawberry Hill upon request.

Email Anne at education@strawberryhill.org to register. Space is limited to 15 participants.

Due to the nature of a nighttime hike, this activity is recommended for older children who are comfortable walking in the woods at night.
