When it snows, ain’t it thrilling, Though your nose gets a chilling… Yes, it’s time for Northfield’s 27th Annual Winter Walk!

This hometown favorite is back for 2025! The fun takes place Thursday, December 11 from 4:30 – 9 pm.

In the heart of the holiday season, an event takes place that draws crowds from near and far. Steaming cups of hot cocoa, the sounds of hooves clippity-clapping along the streets, and candles flickering in the breeze, creates a magical and can’t-miss one-night festival.

Visitors can wander through unique shops and enjoy beautifully decorated storefront window displays. There will be horse-drawn wagon rides ready to take you for a short ride, carolers strolling through downtown along with thousands of twinkling lights to guide your path!
