About this Event
Join our Reserve Officers for an evening of badger watching from our Badger Hide at Egleton!
The hide is situated close to the Badger set and here you can enjoy fantastic views as our resident family venture out on their evening forage.
The Badger Watch evenings start at around dusk and go on for approximately 2 hours. Not only do you have a chance to see Badgers but also other nocturnal creatures and previous highlights include Tawny Owl, Barn Owl, Bats, Foxes and Muntjac Deer.
Our Badger Watches are open to all ages. We ask parents to use their discretion when deciding if a Watch is appropriate for their child, as attendees are expected to remain seated and quiet for approximately two hours.
Badger Watches will go ahead in all but the most extreme weather. In the unlikely event that we have to cancel a Watch, we will ring you in advance and re-arrange another date.
Torches are recommended but not essential. Please wear suitable clothing, it can get cold the in the evenings.
Please arrive 10-15 minutes early so ensure you get the most from your session.
Please note:
Flash photography is not permitted
Access involves a steep climb of approximately five to six steps.
The event may overrun if badgers appear later on in the evening but also may finish slightly earlier if badgers are seen early on in the watch
We cannot guarantee badger sightings
