Updated: 1:49 AM EST January 12, 2021 TOLEDO, Ohio — Bikers and hikers, here's your chance to get in an after-work trip through the top metroparks in the nation. Metroparks Toledo kickstarted "Metroparks After Dark" for 2021 with three activities at parks across the greater Toledo area. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays until March 10, hikers can take a walk through the trails at a time when the parks are usually closed. The after-dark hikes are from 5 to 8 p.m. and are dog-friendly, with the exception of the Toledo Botanical Garden hike on Jan. 19. Hikers are encouraged to bring a buddy and bring a flashlight or wear headlamps. Sturdy hiking shoes are recommended and the hikes will take place regardless of weather. Hikers must follow social distancing guidelines.
