Experience Arch Rock by the light of the full moon on a free guided walk with Park Naturalist, Kyle Bagnall. Meet at the Avenue of Flags (behind Fort Mackinac) for a walk down the botanical trail. We’ll arrive in time to watch the full moon rise from the east through Arch Rock, illuminating the Straits of Mackinac. In 1872, Constance Fenimore Woolson wrote, “The arch is peculiarly beautiful when silvered with the light of the moon, and hence on moonlight nights strangers on the island always visit it.” Bring a flashlight and good shoes for walking about 1.5 miles total. This hike is free, with no preregistration required. Donations welcome! #thisismackinac
