Additional information
All are welcome on this leisurely walk with plenty of stops to explore the evening nature along parts of the Willow Trail. We will have bat detectors to hopefully tune in to some of their communications. It will be quite dark by the time we finish so you may like to bring a torch. The event is FREE but please book places so we know how many to expect and CANCEL your place if you can no longer make it. Please dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.
