Autumn Bat Walk

Join this magical dusk walk as we hunt for bats - we have enough detectors for every family group to have one of their own!

The cemetery is a rare and unique place to be at dusk. It's a little bit spooky, but equally stunningly beautiful. The bats use the cemetery to hunt at dusk for food and the bat detectors will help us see them as they whirl overhead.
