Learn about animals that glow in the gloom, dig in the dark and call out in the twilight!  Check out the insect observatory, search the tree tops, bushland and billabong for some native nocturnal friends.  Reflect on your adventure with a hot drink and toasted marshmallows around the campfire. Then create a nature craft as a memento of your night. A perfect evening for everyone.

This family activity is suitable for children over 4 years of age.

Please ensure you arrive on time for a prompt start, appropriately dressed for the prevailing weather conditions.

Bring your own torch, and enclosed footwear is essential.

Adult supervision is required at all times for this program.
