Halloween Hikes
Oct. 12-14, 2011, 6-7:30pm
Every year, our guests enjoy a Halloween hike through the woods with non-scary characters in a fun performance. This year's theme is "Hartman Idol" and the event will take place on October 12, 13 & 14. Hikes begin at 6pm and leave every 15 minutes until 7:30pm. Enjoy musical performances by Hartman's own critters and vote for your favorite!
Designed for the whole family, Halloween Hikes are complete with lighted trails and nature-related stories. Following the hike, warm-up with hot cocoa, cider, and treats while you vote for your favorite pumpkin in the annual pumpkin contest. Costumes are welcome! For larger groups of 15 or more, please contact Laura at (319) 277-2187 or laura.hrnc@gmail.com to reserve a hike in advance.
