Smith Mountain Lake State Park, 1235 State Park Rd., Huddleston, VA 24104.
Campfire Amphitheater, across from campground

When

Aug. 11, 2023. 7:45 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.

In this very special event, we will be exploring nature after the sun goes down and visualize it the way nocturnal animals do.

"Who-who" wants to join a park ranger in exploring the dark of night? We will be calling in owls that are hiding in the treetops. Come prepared with your flashlight and be ready to learn about these perching predators. We will start with an owl program, then at dusk head out on the trail to listen for owls.

Wear closed toed shoes, clothing appropriate for the weather, and bring a flashlight.
Space is limited: pre-registration required at Visitor Center. Registration opens one week prior to hike date. Free
