Join us for a self guided hike to enjoy the fireflies on the Healthy West Orange Boardwalk.

Donations are greatly appreciated. Registration not required.

Event canceled during rain as the fireflies typically stay hidden.

Please enjoy the fireflies with your eyes only.

* No touching, capturing (in jars or other containers) or any other actions that cause harm to the fireflies, or other animals you may encounter on your hike.

* No flashlights, phone lights or flash photography allowed. Artificial lights can affect the firefly’s ability to communicate.

* No bug spray. This not only kills mosquitoes, but also delicate fireflies.

* No pets allowed. It is unsafe for other visitors & the dogs to navigate past each other on our narrow boardwalk. Plus, dusk is when our Preserve predators are more active.

* No smoking on the boardwalk/Preserve property. It has been very dry, and fires can start very easily in these hot conditions.
