Full Moon Hikes: Sturgeon Moon

Head out to the Plains Conservation Center in Aurora for a guided evening hike under the Sturgeon Moon. You’ll follow the trail with a naturalist who will share the cultural history and ecological meaning behind this month’s full moon.

As you walk, you’ll experience the prairie in a different light — literally — noticing sounds, shadows, and wildlife that feel distinct after sunset. It’s an easy way to connect with nature and with others who are curious about the stories behind each full moon.
