Afternoon Winter Solstice Hike

Director of Education Tom Finley will guide us on this hike to explore the significance of the winter solstice in Wisconsin. This date marks the beginning of astronomical winter in the northern hemisphere and is usually the shortest day of the year, with respect to sunrise-sunset. Celebrated across cultures for centuries, this is often the time for people to reflect on the year gone by, look forward to the year ahead and to embrace the gradual change of ever-lengthening daylight. After the hike, we will enjoy some time around a fire.

This program will take place entirely outdoors. We will practice social distancing when we are able to, but because of the nature of small-group programming, it will not always be possible. For the health and safety of all, participants must wear a mask when you are within six feet of others. Please do not attend if you are sick or believe you have been exposed to the virus. See our latest COVID-19 updates here.
