Join us in Hope for an educational night hike under the full moon! While hiking the Thacker Mountain Loop trail, you will learn about the lunar cycle, lunar and solar eclipses, star navigation and constellations, as well as “low-tech astronomy.”Summer has slipped away, and the Autumn Equinox has brought balance to day and night. Join Hope Mountain Centre and cosmic enthusiast and astrophotographer, Eloi Homier AKA “The Moon Guy Next Door” to learn all about the night sky and our closest celestial neighbor: the moon.
While hiking this intermediate trail, we’ll make many stops where we’ll learn about night vision, the effects of light pollution, finding and recognizing the planets, and more! Enjoy a hot apple cider treat to keep warm during our stops to chat, while you take in the beautiful views over the town of Hope with the towering mountains in the background, lit by the night sky.

Educational interpretive walk
Hot apple cider & snack
Remote First Aid Certified Staff
