## About

Burlington County Parks leads an evening night hike from the Smithville Park Visitor Center two days before Christmas. A park naturalist and ranger guide the group to listen and watch for nocturnal wildlife and look at the night sky. The county lists the walk for all ages, with a distance of 1 to 2.5 miles at an easy-to-moderate level. Walkers can bring a red-light headlamp or flashlight to protect their night vision. Registration is through the county's Rec1 catalog.
