Halloween Bat Walk at Strawberry Hill

Halloween Bat Walk at Strawberry Hill
Friday 10th and 17th of October | 5:30pm–7:00pm

As a prelude to Halloween, join us for a one-of-a-kind Halloween Bat Walk in the grounds of Strawberry Hill. With local conservation experts from Habitats & Heritage, you’ll step into Walpole’s wooded landscape at twilight, using bat detectors to tune in to the eerie calls of pipistrelles and other nocturnal hunters.

The evening will begin with a Gothic-themed introduction to Strawberry Hill and its gardens from one of our expert guides, setting the scene for your twilight adventure. You’ll then enjoy a short talk on bats, learn how to use specialist bat detectors, and discover fascinating facts about our local bat population before heading into the grounds at dusk.

Tickets: £10 adults | £5 children

Please arrive from 5:15pm for a prompt 5:30pm start.
