Big Thicket National Preserve

Stargazing Stroll

Experience the park after dark!

Join a ranger to walk the Longleaf Pine Trail at 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, Jupiter, 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!
