Download the Events guide

This popular, early evening, guided walk is to discover the night creatures of the Moor, in particular bats. Bat detectors will be used to identify the presence of any bats. This is a moderate, atmospheric walk of about two or three miles around the tarns and within the pine woodland; there is some uphill climbing involved. A touch will be very useful in the fading evening light.
