Welcome to Winter in Point Reyes, where the sun hangs low in the sky and goes to bed early. We will be spending a little more time in the dark, allowing you to experience the moon and get back home not too late . Hikes will go at a leisurely pace on easy trails, and will meet at different locations and different times for each hike.  During our hike we will enjoy features only found in the night, including constellations and, if we’re lucky, nocturnal animals. We appreciate the support of our members and are excited to offer them this special program. All members allowed up to two guests (guest can be non-members).  All ages are welcome.
