Snowshoeing

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is hosting candlelight events across the state this winter, including one at Fort Ridgely State Park 5-8 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 27. Drop in for snowshoeing or hiking as stars twinkle overhead and candles flicker in the snow.

“Candlelight events are a magical way to experience parks and trails,” said Ann Pierce, director of Minnesota state parks and trails. “On a cold winter’s night, there’s something beautiful about the flicker of candles. Plus, being active outside in winter is a great way to beat cabin fever. Bundle up and come join us on a candlelit trail.”
