ON SALE NOW: Tickets are live for another Grandfather by Night: Twilight Hike on Aug. 21!

This event is perfect for those interested in learning more about Grandfather's unique flora and crepuscular (active during twilight) fauna, watching a stunning sunset (weather permitting) and embarking on a night hike.

The hike takes place after sunset, with a goal of discussing and looking for the creatures that are more active after the sun goes down. The group will explore a unique forest ecosystem from top to bottom in search of salamanders, owls, flying squirrels, fireflies and any other creatures they might come across. The Twilight Hike program is not accessible to guests with limited mobility.

Reserve your spot at grandfather.com/event/by-night5.
