Biosphere Night walk - biofluorescence discovery workshop

Join GSAB's Nature Recovery officer Antoine for a night time exploration of the woodlands in Daljarrock forest.

We will meet as the sun sets, and let our eyes get slowly accostumed to the darkness as we enter the woods and explore our surroundings using only ultraviolet (UV) lights or red light. Discover the fascinating world of biofluorescence and encounter creatures you dodn't know existed!

Parking & Meeting Point: We will meet at the Auld School community centre in Pinwherry and carshare to the woodland where there is limited parking space.

Accessibility: During this walk, we will be walking in the dark along well maintained paths. We may also explore areas bordering paths. This means we may have to negotiate low branches and muddy patches.

What to bring:

• Clothing for the weather
• Suitable footwear with a good tread
• A head or hand torch, preferably with a red light mode
• Your sense of wonder!
• Walking stick if you need one

Tickets are free but we have a Donation Ticket option on the booking page, and are grateful for any and all contributions. These help our charity sustain its year-round event programme across SW Scotland's UNESCO Biosphere.
