The Friends of Island Lake Recreation Area will be hosting another year of lantern-lit hikes 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 a 1.5 mile loop
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.
