Video – Photo Gallery – Bethlehem Walk Takes Place in Cold Springs

In Community, Local, Photo Gallery

The annual Bethlehem Walk took place over the weekend at the Cold Springs Hall in Hamilton Township.

Volunteers from across Hamilton Township began organizing the walk in 2003 recreating the biblical Christmas story with live re-enactments of the journey to Bethlehem, featuring characters like shepherds, wise men, and angels, culminating in the manger scene.

Visitors receive a “passport” and “coin” upon arrival, and while waiting to take part in the walk listen to Christmas music.

The walk features live entertainment, actors portraying biblical figures, real animals, and is lit by candles. Along the way, visitors use the coin to pay their taxes.

The journey ends with a manger scene in a barn, then guests can go along a wagon ride followed by hot chocolate and cookies.

The event took place on Saturday, November 15 and Sunday, November 16, 2025 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
