    https://www.bats.org.uk/

    We will paddle from our slipway to a few areas now for a range of bats. As the light fades, watch these amazing creatures glide inches above the waters surface. Listen to them communicate and hunt on our bat detectors while you immerse yourselves in to their world.

    Please note: Rain can cancel this event as the Bats will not come out. In this instance we would either offer a full refund or reschedule for another date.

    As the temperature can dip a few degrees as the sun sets we would suggest a coat and hat to this session.

    As you drive over the small humpback bridge, take the next right to Avon Valley Farm before you enter the Avon Valley Adventure & Wildlife Park. Follow this road, over a couple of speed bumps and turn left, following the signs where you will arrive at our car park. Please head to the reception to book in.

    If you are following a sat nav then type in BS31 1TS.

Highly recommend!! Booked this for 15 people for a stag weekend (Battle Archery & Battle Royale). Both activities were brilliant and the whole group loved it. The two Sam’s (trainers) were awesome! A lot of fun 😁
