The 8th annual Hygge Hike will be taking place on Saturday, February 28, 2026 from 6:00 – 8:00 pm at the Historic Montreal Ski Trails. This event is being planned in partnership between NICER and the Penokee Rangers Trail Corps,
Participants will arrive to find a variety of luminaries lining the 1.5 mile route along a portion of the Historic Montreal Ski Trails, with multiple bonfires, Swedish torches, and a few other surprises along the way. Late Run Coffee will also be on site. Participants are also encouraged to wear anything that GLOWS to help light up the night (glow sticks, LED light vests, reflective clothing, black light or colored flashlights…get creative)!
Don’t have snowshoes? We have you covered! The Extension Iron County office will have their community snowshoes available to use for FREE, with kids and adult sizes to choose from, while supplies last.
A $10 donation per family will be collected at the trailhead, with proceeds to benefit NICER and the Penokee Rangers (who maintain the Historic Montreal Ski Trails on a volunteer basis). Parking will be limited. We will share parking details soon.
Even though this is a dog friendly trail system, we ask that you leave your dogs at home during this event.
