Join a Penicuik Estate Ranger and local bat specialists as we hunt for these fascinating creatures during an evening stroll around the estate. Following a route from the car park down to Old Penicuik House we will look and listen for bats using detectors which will help us to identify the different bat species that live here. We may even spot some of the other nocturnal residents of the estate!

We will be meeting at 1830 at the estate car park which is located just off the A766 road.
The walk will last for roughly 2 hours and won’t involve more than 2 miles of walking. Could disabled visitors please contact the Ranger Service on the number below in order to arrange their booking – all but one of the places we are going are wheelchair accessible, down a tarmac drive.
