# Event Details - **Event Name**: Spooky Night Hike: Coyote Canyon/Ocotillo Flat - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 01 Nov, 2025 at 05:00 pm – Sat, 01 Nov, 2025 at 09:00 pm - **Event Description**: Join Us for a spooky day after Halloween hike through the Ocotillo Flat area of Coyote Canyon! Venture into the desert after dark for a spooky—but family-friendly—night hike through the mysterious Ocotillo Flat area of Coyote Canyon! The desert transforms after sunset, and on this special evening just after Halloween, we’ll explore the sights, sounds, and stories that make this landscape come alive under the stars. Halloween costumes encouraged! What to Expect: We’ll begin our adventure at Ocotillo Flats, surrounded by the silhouettes of ocotillo and creosote under the rising moon. We’ll hike roughly 3 miles roundtrip across gentle (though uneven) terrain. Along the trail, you might see nocturnal creatures that thrive after dark, such as scorpions, bats, and owls. This easy-paced night hike is led by an ABF staff member and wilderness first responder, ensuring a safe, fun, and slightly spooky experience for all ages. Who Should Attend: Families and friends looking for a unique way to celebrate the Halloween season outdoors. Halloween costumed encouraged! Nature lovers eager to experience the desert at night and learn about its nocturnal life. Anyone who enjoys a lighthearted mix of nature, stories, and a touch of Halloween magic under a starlit sky. Hikers comfortable with a relatively easy 3-mile walk on sandy, uneven terrain. Bring your sense of adventure—and maybe your costumes and glow sticks—for a night of desert mystery and moonlit fun!
