Halloween Hikes Start Oct. 19 In Roswell

ROSWELL, GA. – Back for its 33rd year, Halloween Hikes at the Chattahoochee Nature Center provide the perfect non-scary family-friendly holiday event.

A unique Halloween adventure that will take children and families on a well-lit hike through the forest to meet woodland creatures and hear about how they live, Halloween Hikes lets guests experience the mystery of a guided night hike.

Meet costumed characters including everyone’s favorites, the Box Turtle and Dragonfly, during the ~45-minute hike. Each character tells its audience about itself and its place in the Chattahoochee River watershed.

Along with the hikes, there is plenty of fun Halloween happenings during the nights. Crafting, face painting, hot chocolate and a campfire are all awaiting visitors! Be sure to come in costume! (Food is an Additional Cost)

As part of the annual tradition, s’mores will be sold to help raise money for the Camp Kingfisher scholarship fund, allowing needy children experience a summer camp in nature. For more information, visit the special event page for Halloween Hikes.
