Grab your lantern, flashlight or headlamp and meet the Endless Mountains Heritage Region at Vosburg Neck State Park on Saturday, September 6, for a full moon hike!
Participants should meet at 470 Vosburg Rd, Tunkhannock, PA 18657 by 7:30 p.m. for sign-in and to receive a FREE glowstick!
Vosburg Neck’s DCNR Environmental Education Specialist Amanda Kiernan will lead the group on a four-mile hike combining the Canal, Eagle and River Trails of Vosburg Neck State Park. The trails are relatively level but will see some uphill and downhill on the Vosburg Road. Overall, the loop will be an easy hike for participants. The different landscapes participants will see will be woodland, farmland and the Susquehanna River. Hikers are encouraged to bring a sufficient supply of water for a couple of hours, and appropriate clothing and footwear (hiking shoes or boots) for the weather and the evening-time.
According to the Farmer’s Almanac, September’s full moon is called the Corn Moon because corn was ready to harvest at this time. Learn more about this and other moon-related facts during the event!
This exciting event is free and open to the public, but we ask that you please register so we can get a headcount for glowsticks and prepare with enough guides on the trail. Register at www.emheritage.org/events.
