CANCELLED - After Dark in the Part

Description

Spring Equinox Night Hike
Have you ever wondered what happens in our preserves after dark? Find out how the night comes alive on this short guided sunset and night hike through Stephen J. Wortham Park and Rhodine Nature Preserve. This hike will count toward the 2018-2019 Hillsborough County Hiking Spree, and completing 8 of the selected hikes will earn you an official Hiker Patch or Medallion.
About three miles in length, this hike will take us through the thick oak and pine forest of Stephen J. Wortham Park and into the scrub and pine flatwoods of Rhodine Nature Preserve. Listen for night-calling frogs, crickets, owls and bats as we wander the sandy trails and enjoy the stars.
​Learn about the nocturnal animals that call your favorite preserves their home and how to spot and listen for them after dark. Bring a headlamp and you may even see some of your favorite wildlife looking back at you!
After you sign up for this hike, we will contact you with payment and registration information.
