Bat walk

Discover the fascinating world of bats that inhabit Wakehurst on an evening walk and talk.

The evening will begin with an interesting insight into the lives of the various bat species that inhabit Wakehurst, their different behaviour, habitat requirements and what the garden has to offer them.

Using electronic detectors, we will aim to pick up the ultrasonic calls of hunting bats as we walk from the Mansion down to Westwood Lake and back.

Your guides will also explain about other animals, birds and insects that call Wakehurst home.

Your guides

Your hosts for the evening will be experienced Wakehurst Rangers, Steve Cook and Kari Winter, who are experts on Wakehurst's wildlife residents.
