About the event

Join our Guided Walk Leaders for an Introduction to Butterflies and Dragonflies at Brockholes.

Brockholes is a haven for Butterflies and Dragonflies at this time of year, and we will take you to our best spots and provide you with some hints and tips on how to identify many of our common species!

No experience or knowledge required. Aimed at complete beginners. 

The walk is at a gentle pace, with lots of stopping to view the species that we spot.

The event is aimed at adults, but interested children aged 11+ are welcome to book but must be accompanied and supervised by an adult. 

Pre booking is required. Please note that booking closes at 4.00pm the day before the event.

Come dressed for the weather conditions wearing sturdy footwear.

Normal parking charges apply.

This walk is open to all. If you wish to organise a private guided walk specifically for your group or organisation, please contact us at brockholes@lancswt.org.uk
