About this program
Experience the park after dark!
Join a ranger to walk the Longleaf Pine Trail after sunset and observe the wonders of the night sky through a telescope as the sky gets dark. If conditions allow, we'll look at the Moon, Saturn, and distant objects in our galaxy.
The hike is 1 mile roundtrip. Please bring a flashlight for the return hike in the darkness.
Meet at the visitor center . All ages are welcome!
