Enjoy the beautiful full moon and night sky on this special event hike from the Nature Center to Lake Michigan and back. Stories about our moon, up-close views, and “stellar” treats will be shared thanks to the Friends of the Indiana Dunes. This program starts in the Nature Center Auditorium and the hike will begin after a 20-minute introduction to our moon and the hike trail route. The hike portion will still proceed in cloudy conditions.  However, check the park’s Facebook page by 4p.m. for cancellation due to inclement weather conditions.

Our interpretive programs are designed to entertain and enrich folks of all ages. Children under 12 must have an adult with them at programs.

Registration is not required for this program.

All our programs are free (unless otherwise noted). They are open to the public after paying the park entrance fee. ($7 in-state & $12 out-of-state)  

All our Interpretive programs are listed in Central Time.

The Nature Center's Current Hours:  Open Daily 9:00 – 4:00 CST
