Event Description

Kids ages 3–10 become junior detectives for an evening of clues, forest adventures, games, dinner, and a mystery to solve at Hidden Trails Forest & Farm School.

Event Details

Something mysterious is happening at Hidden Trails, and a team of junior detectives is needed to crack the case.

Mystery in the Forest: Parents' Night Out is an evening adventure designed for children ages 3–10. Young investigators will explore Hidden Trails while following clues, searching for evidence, cracking secret codes, completing woodland challenges, and playing forest games as they work together to solve the mystery.

Along the way, kids will enjoy dinner with friends and have the chance to earn a prize for solving the case. If weather conditions and local fire restrictions allow, the evening will finish around the campfire with s'mores.

Good to Know

Dinner is included and features hot dogs, chips, fruit, and drinks. Children should arrive dressed for an outdoor adventure and wearing closed-toe shoes.

While the kids investigate, parents get a few well-deserved hours to themselves.

Space is limited to just 20 participants, so advance reservations are recommended. Contact Hidden Trails Forest & Farm School by Facebook message, phone, text, or email to reserve a spot.
