Frequently Asked Questions
How long should we allow?
The outdoor journey takes about 1 hour 20 minutes. Before that, the wait in the high school gym can be 1 to 2+ hours, especially for walk-ins. Every walk-in group gets an approximate start time.
Is the walk accessible for wheelchairs or strollers?
No. The path is uneven and unpaved, with some incline, so it isn't wheelchair accessible. Fold-up strollers are OK but not ideal.
Can we make a reservation?
Only groups of 12 to 30 bringing their own guide can reserve. Everyone else walks in. Reserved groups must check in at least 15 minutes ahead, or their slot may go to walk-in guests.
Is there food while we wait?
No food is provided at the school. Bring your own, have food delivered to the school, or eat at a local restaurant during your wait. Cookies and hot chocolate are served at the end of the tour.
How can I volunteer?
Sign up through the 2026 volunteer link. You can volunteer for one night, though both nights are appreciated. You can split a role with a replacement if you both sign up, and couples and friends are encouraged to guide together.
