As the longest night of the year approaches, we invite you to connect with nature and celebrate the return of the light during this guided hike by Great Hollow wildlife biologist, Sarah Deckel. Discover the calming charm of the season as we walk frosty trails to the waterfall while embracing the peaceful quiet of the winter woods. After our hike, we’ll create and gather around a “winter spiral” to symbolize the transition from darkness to light and the gradual return of longer days. Those who choose may then walk the spiral path while reflecting on the past year and setting goals for the year ahead.

Please wear warm clothes and hiking shoes to stay cozy in the winter chill. Bring a small candle if you would like to contribute to the winter spiral. We’ll serve warm beverages to enjoy after the hike. Space is limited (10-15 people), so please email Sarah at  by Thursday, December 19th to reserve your spot.
