Bat Walks at Dusk in Heaton Mersey
April 23 @ 8:30 PM - 9:30 PM
Join us for a spooky evening stroll in Heaton Mersey to spot some bats as the sun sets using bat detectors!
This evening bat walk will give you the chance to hear and observe the bats using our special bat monitoring equipment. The insects will be out and the bats will be hunting!
The event will last just over an hour, and will take you from a meeting place in Heaton Mersey down to the river. Please wear appropriate shoes for uneven terrain. You can book your tickets here.
The walks are led by volunteers from Sustainable Living in the Heatons. Although the walk is free, we ask for a voluntary donation of £6 for adults over 18, payable in cash on the night. Please book a place for all adults and children attending.
Our bat walks are always popular and oversubscribed. If you or your party need to cancel your booking, please do so as soon as possible through your booking confirmation. If you are unable to cancel it through this method please contact bats@slheatons.org. If the event is fully booked please contact bats@slheatons.org to go on the waiting list.
Having booked for the bat walk, you will receive more detailed information and meeting details by email a few days before the event. If you need more information please contact us at bats@slheatons.org.
The bat walks are led by volunteers from Sustainable Living in the Heatons, trained by ecologist Jeff Clarke, and with funding from the Stockport Hydro Environmental Challenge Fund to purchase the bat monitors.
