Family Friendly Night Hike: Bats & Stars

Family Friendly Night Hike: Bats & Stars at Williamson Preserve

Join Triangle Land Conservancy for a Family Friendly Night Hike at the Sarah and Bailey Williamson Preserve! As dusk falls, we’ll set out along the Two Pond and Pine Warbler Trails to explore the preserve after dark and learn about one of nature’s most fascinating nocturnal creatures — bats.

Participants will discover fun facts about local bat species, their important role in our ecosystem, and ways we can help protect them. As we walk, we’ll keep an eye out (and an ear out) for bats in flight while experiencing the sights and sounds of the forest at night.

What to Bring:

• Comfortable walking shoes

• Flashlight or headlamp (red light preferred)

• Insect repellent and water

This program is designed for families and nature enthusiasts of all ages. This is a free event, but preregistration is required.
