Same way you get home from the village pub in the dark without a torch, you use what's there. In practice it's not that hard particularly if there's isn't too much nearby streetlighting to confuse the issue (and ruin your night vision) if the skies are fairly clear.

After landing, seeing to taxi can be the most difficult bit, and where the landing light is actually most useful.
