Do you want to learn all about the bats that call Milton Keynes home? Why not join us for a Bat Walk at Furzton Lake and discover more about these incredible creatures!

This event is timed to begin just before sunset. Please check the start time and arrive early for a quick briefing and to learn how to use the bat detectors.
Due to the popularity of these events, pre-booking is essential. Each attendee requires a ticket, and children must be accompanied by an adult. Adults tickets are £5, and child tickets (under 16) are £1.
Please dress warmly, as it can get cooler after sunset.
