Evening Bat Walks at Fell Foot
Head out for family-friendly bat and wildlife spotting adventures after dark with our Ranger team at Fell Foot.
- Booking essential
New for 2025. Join us at dusk and as things get dark, the time of day when Fell Foot’s bats are coming out to fly and feed.
Enjoy a fun family-friendly introduction to bats before setting off on a family friendly guided walk with our bat detectors to see what you can find. It’s not just bats out at night, maybe you’ll hear the call of an owl or the rustle of a passing mouse.
Head back to Active Base to warm up with a hot drink and share your experiences.
£10 per adult, under 16's go free. Meet at 7.00pm for a 7.15pm start. Finished by 8.45-ish
