Sunset to Starlight - Summer Solstice New Moon Hike

🌑 New Moon - Night Hike
Event Leader - Taryn
Introducing a magical night from our After Dark series…
Distance: Approx. 6km
Pace: Moderate
Theme: Vision & Beginnings - Planting Seeds for the Year Ahead
Step into the stillness of the New Moon - the darkest night of the lunar cycle and a powerful time to set intentions. Just days before the year’s end, this walk invites you to pause, reflect, and dream forward. Together, we’ll create space for visioning new beginnings while embracing the quiet energy of the New Moon.
On this 6km hike, we’ll move through the night by torchlight, guided by the sounds of nature and the rhythm of our footsteps. Midway, we’ll pause for a cacao ritual - a grounding moment to release the old and plant seeds of intention for the year to come.
This is a hike for those seeking clarity, renewal, and soulful connection beneath the stars.
Includes:
6km guided hike (moderate pace)
Cacao ceremony + light bites
🕠 Hike begins: 7:45pm
🚶 Distance: 6km | Approx. 3 hours
