Walks: Bats and Other Nocturnal Mammals

With Vincent Wildlife Trust

 – Meeting Place on Festival Site

Join Vincent Wildlife Trust’s Conservation Team for an evening walk to look for bats and other nocturnal mammals. Bat detectors will allow us to listen out for the bats as they fly around, hunting for insects, and thermal imaging cameras will enable us to look for mammals in the dark.

The Trust’s Bat Programme Manager Daniel Hargreaves will tell us about all things bat, while Carnivore Programme Manager Dr Steve Carter will introduce the Trust’s work to conserve threatened carnivores, including pine martens, which are now returning to the Wye Valley after a hundred-year absence.

Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. The route will include some inclines and uneven paths. Please wear appropriate footwear and outdoor gear. We recommend that you wrap up warm and bring a torch.
