Night Hike Series

Huyck Preserve trails typically close at dusk but a few times a year we lead special night hikes! To attend this event, you MUST RSVP using the RSVP form below. For safety and organization, this hike is limited to 40 people on a first come first serve basis!

Please wear sturdy hiking shoes, dress in layers for a chilly night, and bring a headlamp or flashlight (red color preferred!). Hiking poles recommended if you need them. If sufficient snow is on the horizon, it is recommended that you bring snow shoes. We have a limited number of snowshoes available for rent at $5/pair. Please indicate on the RSVP form if you will need snowshoes. 

General hike policies
Please arrive 5-10 minutes before the hike to sign in! Hikes begin promptly at the listed start time. A suggested donation of $5/person is greatly appreciated for public programs. All guests must sign a waiver at time of the hike; guests under 18 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian. Hikes are rain or shine and weather at the Preserve can be unpredictable – please dress appropriately and wear comfortable, sturdy hiking shoes or warm snow boots. Layers are highly recommended!
