About the event

Enjoy a trail of nocturnal activities at Carlton Marshes. Activities include bat detecting, skull quiz, storytelling, nature themed crafts, stargazing, campfire with smores (optional) and much more. Activities will be both inside and outside so please come dressed for being outside. You will walk around the trail in your own time so please bring a torch with you. 

This event is ideal for you if your want a more sustainable and nature themed alternative to Halloween.  

Entry is staggered to avoid overcrowding so please arrive at the time on your tickets and purchase the same timed tickets for the whole of your group. 

There is no time limit on how long you stay, we estimate the trail of activities will take you 1-1.5 hours. The whole event finishes at 8:30pm. 

This event is suitable for children aged 5+. Children under 5 can attend with a cheaper ticket, babes in arms are free. 

Our cafe hatch will also be open during the event to offer seasonal treats and hot drinks (additional cost).

Please note tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable unless Suffolk Wildlife Trust have to cancel an event, in which case you will receive a full refund. See our full events terms and conditions here
