A holiday celebration for hike lovers, this Athol Bird & Nature Club romp will be on the carriage width ski trails at Northfield. Our headlamps will light the way on this longest night of the year as we share solstice facts and quotes from literary lovers of the night. A visit to a mid-mountain campfire and shared cider and snacks will sweeten this night as we turn toward the sun. Participants should bring a headlamp, dress in layers for hiking in winter weather and expect to hike 1 ½ miles with an elevation gain of 300‘. If our trails are open for skiing, snowshoes are required. Free and suitable for ages 11 and older. Pre-registration required by calling 800-859-2960. Meet at the Northfield Mountain Recreation & Environmental Center.
