Celebrate America's 250th Anniversary ALL SUMMER LONG!

Ozarks Aglow is an enchanted nighttime walk at Shepherd of the Hills, where light, legend, and Ozark heritage come together beneath the stars.

As dusk settles over the hills, guests are invited to wander illuminated woodland pathways filled with breathtaking hand-crafted lanterns, each glowing with color and artistry. These larger-than-life lantern sculptures are uniquely designed around the timeless story of The Shepherd of the Hills—bringing beloved characters, and Ozark folklore to life—while also celebrating the natural beauty, wildlife, and traditions of the Ozarks.

Towering lantern scenes shimmer among the trees, reflecting off winding paths and open clearings, creating a magical blend of lantern artistry and Ozark storytelling. Gentle lighting, immersive displays, and carefully composed scenes make Ozarks Aglow perfect for families, couples, and photographers alike.

More than a walk, Ozarks Aglow is a journey through light and legend—where history glows, stories shine, and the spirit of the Ozarks comes alive after dark.
