Come one, come all, for a spooky hike this Fall!
Trek around Widewater State Park to see the sights, avoid the tricks, and collect some treats. Start in the Visitor Center to pick up your trail pamphlet (or download it here) before hiking the upper portion of Long Pond Trail, which will have spooky themed decorations and educational interpretive stops. On this trail you will learn about local history and wildlife that can be found at the park. The hike ends back in the Visitor Center where the ranger on duty will check your pamphlet before sharing a cauldron of sweets and treats.
This is a self-guided hike, meaning visitors can come whenever is convenient during park hours and participate at their own pace. Costumes are optional but highly encouraged!
