About the event
Step into a full Hike & Dine experience designed to get you out of your routine and into something refreshing, social, and scenic. Just under 3 hours from Detroit, we are traveling to the Lake Michigan shoreline for a late afternoon hike, then bringing the energy into Grand Rapids for an evening of good food and a unique nighttime experience.
The hike is just under 4 miles (with the opportunity to extend the hike) and easy to moderately easy, with sandy paths, light rolling hills, and beautiful shoreline views throughout. It’s the perfect balance of movement and relaxation, giving you time to take in the scenery, connect with the group, and enjoy the moment without feeling rushed.
After the hike, we’ll dine together before heading to the lantern fest at John Ball Zoo, where the night comes alive with glowing displays and an immersive atmosphere.
