If you love our Full Moon Hikes, you will love the New Moon Hike just as much!
During this phase, the moon is very close to the sun, so it is hard to be seen by the naked eye. The night sky on this lunar phase is usually darker and other astral objects can be more visible. The illumination of this phase is almost, if not zero!
Join us for a hike around Russ Nature Reserve on this moonless night! Will your eyes be able to adapt like our nocturnal friends? Flashlights are allowed (if necessary) but we hope that you can allow your eyes time to adjust so you can see in the dark.
This hike will be led by two of our education team members!
