Take a romantic evening hike on a lantern-lit trail with your loved one. Listen to the crunch of snow, maybe the hoot of owls, and the sweet whispers of the wind in your ear while you experience the magic of winter in Michigan. The self-guided luminary walk is for all experience levels. After your walk, warm yourself by the fire pit or in our historic Schoolhouse while you enjoy wine, hard cider, or hot cocoa and chocolates. Beverages are not included in the ticket price but will be available for purchase! In the event of sufficient snow, a limited number of snowshoes will be available to rent the evening of the program for $6 per pair. You are also welcome to bring your own snowshoes, if you have them.
This is an open-house style program. You may arrive at anytime between 6-8 pm, but please note the evening will wrap up at 8 pm. Plan on spending at least an hour to enjoy a beverage by the fire and walk the lantern-lit trail.
