Returning this Christmas Season the “Light the Blockhouse Hike” on Sunday, Dec. 13th. Join the Fort Abraham Lincoln team as we ring in the 2026 holiday season, flipping the switch on the decorated iconic infantry post blockhouse! The hike will start and end at the park Visitor Center. Don't miss the return of this wonderful annual tradition. Before & after the hike, stay for warm fire pits and a fantastic holiday-themed hot chocolate bar!! Hot coffee will also be served. The hike will kick off at 6 pm with the park Visitor Center opening one hour prior for visitors to purchase daily entrance passes, 2027 annual passes, park merchandise, and for general viewing of museum exhibits. Hikers are to dress appropriately for the weather and to bring a flashlight for the hike. The hike is a little over a mile and moderately strenuous.
