- **Event Description**: Ring in the new year in the great outdoors with a guided first day hike at Ash Hollow State Historical Park! Meet in the Overlook Trailhead parking lot at 10 a.m. on New Year’s Day for a hike. This moderate 1.2-mile hike starts off a bit steep and rocky, then tapers off to a nice, smooth hiking trail until you descend into the hollow again (strollers not recommended).

Feel free to join us at the Visitor’s Center after the hike (around noon) for a potluck lunch — bring a soup or side to share. Tableware will be provided.

In 2026, Nebraska Game and Parks will join the nation in celebrating 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. This milestone is a unique opportunity to connect Nebraskans with the state’s rich natural, cultural, and outdoor heritage. To commemorate the occasion, park staff will be handing out free 250th Anniversary First Day Hike stickers, while supplies last!

Participants should dress for the weather and remember to bring snacks and water, and binoculars, if desired. Friendly pets are allowed on a six-foot leash. A valid 2026 Nebraska state park vehicle permit is required for entry and can be purchased at the park.
