Grab your warmest winter boots and snowshoes to experience the beauty of Nerstrand Big Woods State Park by candlelight! Complete your night by warming up next to a bonfire with some hot chocolate or cider provided by the Friends of Nerstrand Big Woods State Park. A limited number of snowshoes are available to rent on a first-come, first-served basis. This event is held outside, so dress for winter weather. Extreme cold or unsafe weather conditions may result in the cancellation of this event.
The event is free to attend, but a vehicle permit is required for all motor vehicles entering the park. It is $7 for a day or $35 for a 12-month permit. Permits can be purchased online or at the park office.
