Full Sturgeon Moon Hike at Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge

It’s easy to connect with the Refuge’s many natural wonders during the day, but to experience them at night, with a full moon rising over the horizon and animal activity at its peak, is something casual visitors rarely get to see.

You, your family, and friends are invited to join naturalist Hazel England for a special full-moon hike at the Refuge’s Wildlife Observation Center off Long Hill Road in Harding Township.

Hazel will re-acquaint you with your night senses so you can hear, smell, and even see things that escape you attention during the day. You’ll also learn more about nocturnal wildlife and the sounds they make as the sun goes down.
