About the event

Join us for an extraordinary adventure as we explore the fascinating world of biofluorescence! Biofluorescence is a phenomenon where certain organisms emit light in different colours when exposed to UV light, and we will embark on a guided walk to discover this captivating natural phenomenon up close.

With UV torches provided, we will venture into the darkness to witness a stunning display of biofluorescent organisms in their natural habitat. From fungi to insects and plants, we will encounter a diverse array of species that come alive with vibrant hues.

This guided walk is suitable for anyone aged 8 years and above, all children and teenagers 8-17yo must be accompanied by an adult. Please come prepared with warm clothing as the pace of the walk is slow. We recommend sturdy shoes as the terrain is uneven (walking boots ideal, but trainers adequate) and wearing trousers to avoid stinging nettles. Safety glasses will be provided and must be worn throughout the walk for your protection.

Join us for an unforgettable experience!
