Lantern Hike at Island Lake

\\this is not a group hike, just spreading the word about the lantern hikes to those that do not follow us on Facebook\\

This will be the final lantern hike of the season. This hike hosted by the Friends of Island Lake Recreation Area goes along part of the Hickory Ridge hiking trail, beginning in the first parking lot of the Kent Lake unit. Hike as you follow the lanterns for 1.5 miles, with a campfire warming station at the beginning, halfway point, and end.

Travelin’ Tom’s Coffee Truck will sell hot chocolate and coffee.

Please do not bring your own headlamps or other lights to this hike. Let the lanterns and the moon provide the light.

You do not need to register for this self-guided hike.

You may hike anytime from 6-9pm, and we will begin taking down the lights at 9pm.

As always, dogs are encouraged and need to be leashed at all times.

A Recreation Passport is required for entry into the park.
