Red Squirrel Hunt
Join NWT for a short stroll along the Beeches Trail. Look for signs of red squirrels and finish off the evening in the red squirrel hide, where hopefully you can watch the cheeky creatures feeding! Meet at Leaplish Waterside Park reception. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Wear appropriate clothing and footwear according to the weather. Insect repellent recommended.
