As a naturalist guide leads you along moonlit trails at The Morton Arboretum, learn moon facts and lore, how animals are adapted for nighttime. Enjoy the magic of the woods on a summer night, the symphony of sounds, and hopefully some wildlife darting through the darkness.
In this special opportunity to enjoy the Arboretum after hours, you’ll be surprised how much you can see in the dark.
