About this adventure

This festive outdoor active event invites parents, toddlers, and youth to dress in their favorite holiday sweaters, Santa hats, and festive reindeer antlers for an invigorating, scenic 1.5-mile family walk along the paved lakeside trail. Along the route, participants encounter interactive holiday cheering stations, costumed winter characters like frosty snowmen and gingerbread figures, and cheerful holiday tunes. At the finish line near Kids Cove playground, families enjoy complimentary hot chocolate, healthy holiday snacks, lawn games, and free commemorative finisher ribbons for little walkers.
