Bat Walk & UV Safari
Join us at Tarr Steps for an evening of discovery beneath Exmoor’s spectacular Dark Skies!
As daylight fades, we’ll head out to explore the hidden world of nocturnal wildlife. Using our bat detectors, you’ll be able to hear the echolocation calls of the many bat species that make their home along the Barle Valley. We’ll also use UV torches to reveal the surprising glow of luminescent plants, lichens, and invertebrates that come alive after dark.
Come along for a magical night-time adventure and experience Tarr Steps as you’ve never seen it before. £5pp booking essential. Sorry no dogs.
