Full Moon Hiking Adventure

  • Great Pond Mountain Wildlands Stuart Gross Trailhead Orland, Maine United States (map)

Join MYA on a fab nighttime excursion to Great Pond Mountain Wildlands! Adventurers will enjoying hiking, amazing views, yoga, and a full strawberry moon on the rise...

Adventurers will gather at the Stuart Gross Trailhead, past the Craig Brook National Fish Hatchery the lot is 0.5 miles past the Dead River Gate. The trail is moderate at about 2.5 miles of gradual climb over rocks, roots and soft soil. The transitions in the landscape are quite beautiful with spots along the way to pause and breathe it all in. The wildflowers, the birds, the views, the trees...simply lovely.

When we hit the summit we'll get in a yoga practice - beginners welcome! You won’t need to bring along your mat, simply your sense of humor and willingness to wiggle as you balance :)

Post-yoga break open your pack and enjoy some of your own dinnertime eats. MYA will offer up dark chocolate bars and clementines for dessert.

As the light begins to fade, we’ll gather to watch the full moon rise - the orangey strawberry moon for June. We’ll meditate, relax and drink it in. Adventurers will surely notice different sounds emerging in the dark as daytime's murmur dims.

We’ll allow the light of the moon and our headlamps to guide us back down the trail, moving slowly, taking as much time as we need.
