Full Moon Hike at Wilton Wildlife

Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park invites community members of all ages to experience the beauty of nature after dark during its upcoming series of Full Moon Hikes. The next hike will take place on Saturday, January 31, at 5:00 p.m., offering participants a rare opportunity to explore the park’s serene winter landscape under the glow of the full moon.

Led by a knowledgeable environmental educator, each guided walk provides participants with insights into the unique habitats and wildlife that make Wilton Wildlife a regional treasure. The hikes will be held on the scenic trails of Camp Saratoga, located on Scout Road in the Town of Wilton.

These evening adventures offer a memorable and family-friendly way to appreciate the natural world in a peaceful, moonlit setting. Participants are encouraged to dress warmly and prepare for winter outdoor conditions.

Depending on weather conditions, the program will be conducted on snowshoes if snow is present; otherwise, attendees will enjoy a traditional trail walk. Free snowshoe rentals are available thanks to the generous support of Brookfield Renewable N.A. An additional Full Moon Hike is scheduled for Tuesday, March 3, at 6:00 p.m.
