- Parking
- Free lots across the park. One visitor says the signs are thin, so allow a few spare minutes to find the right building.
- Arrive
- A few minutes before 4, so the lantern-making doesn't start without you. Sunset is around 5 once the clocks go back.
- What it costs
- $10
- Crowds
- It's a capped class, so the cap is the crowd. Register before it fills.

Get directionsOur take
Kids make their own lantern, then walk the trail as it gets dark, learning how the changing seasons affect wildlife. Billed by the county as a celebration of the clocks changing. PRCS activity 162731-01.
