Candlelight Walk Through the Ancient Forest
Guided only by candlelight, experience the stillness and beauty of the ancient redwoods on December 5th, 2009.
One of the best events put on by the California State Parks and the North Coast Redwood Interpretive Association is the Candlelight Walk in the Redwoods. There is nothing like hiking through the forest lit only by candlelight. The trees look very majestic and the shadows are very spiritual.
Begin the evening at the Prairie Creek Visitor Center with hors d’oeuvres from Klamath and Orick restaurants before the Candlelight Walk. Then take a short “interpretive” walk from the Visitor Center to the Campfire Amphitheatre to hear the North Coast Storytellers entertain with stories for all ages including local lore.
After an hour of storytelling around a campfire, the event concludes back at the Visitor Center for mulled cider, cupcakes.
Dress warmly and bring a candle that is enclosed in a plastic cup (along with a flashlight for the walk back from the campfire.) In case of rain, the entire program will be held in the Visitor Center.
