Firefly, Lightning bugs, hike, night hike
ホタルの光

Fireflies are an iconic part of warm summer nights at Shaker Village. Join us for a twilight hike through some of the less-traveled portions of Pleasant Hill's Preserve as we enjoy a spectacular show from nature's fireworks. We'll also discuss some common "lightning bug" misconceptions and separate fact from fiction.

General Admission: $25

Members receive a 20% discount.

This hike will take place outdoors, rain or shine. Participants will traverse gravel, grass, and dirt pathways on a 3.0+ mile loop along Shaker Village's trails. Participants should be comfortable walking in low light/semi-dark conditions. Participants may wish to bring a flashlight/headlamp, insect repellant and water.

The Firefly Hike is intended for ages 16+. Tickets required for all hike attendees. Dogs are not permitted.

Registered attendees who book an overnight stay at The Inn receive a 30% discount, applied at checkout. (Overnight stay must be for the date immediately preceding or succeeding the program. Discount applies to one night. Cannot be combined with other offers.)
