Please check your route before your visit and contact us if you have any queries.


“The baby bat
Screamed out in fright,
'Turn on the dark,
I'm afraid of the light.” - Shel Silverstein

Get hands on with specialist ultrasound equipment in this evening who's who of the bat world.

A gentle walk around our stunning nature reserve, as the sun sets. On the walk we will watch as the dark shadows of our resident bats swoop between the trees and along the water's edge to catch their evening insect-meal. Meanwhile with the use of ultrasound scanners, we will convert their clicks and calls to work out which species they are.

Adults: £10
Children: £5
