Stargazing Stroll

Park Event · Big Thicket National Preserve · Oct 17, 2026 · 7:30 PM–9:30 PM

Experience the park after dark! Join a ranger to walk the Longleaf Pine Trail after sunset and observe the wonders of the night sky through a telescope as the sky gets dark. If conditions allow, we'll look at the Moon, Saturn, and distant objects in our galaxy.

The hike is 1 mile roundtrip. Please bring a flashlight for the return hike in the darkness. Meet at the visitor center. All ages are welcome!
