Description Start the New Year off right with a First Friday Hike! Get
your heart pumping and enjoy the beauty of the forest on a brisk
winter day. Join a naturalist on a guided hike to check Hammel Woods
off your list and be inspired to take advantage of the many preserves
throughout Will County this year. Where will you hike next? Together
we will look for sights, sounds and signs of animals braving the
winter weather alongside us while we enjoy the first Friday sunset of
2026.
The hike will be approximately 2 miles on asphalt and natural surface
trails that are uneven with inclines. Be sure to dress for weather
conditions as the program is completely outdoors.
Note that we will be hiking after sunset into the darkness. Along the
way, we will develop out night vision, so there's no need for
flashlights.
