As the sun begins to set, bats awaken, stir and streak into the evening sky. Come hear fascinating tales of our flying mammals at Aliso and Wood Canyons Wilderness Park! 

The program will begin with story time about bats and their nighttime adventures followed by a short walk to see them start their evening hunt for insects. Be prepared to walk about a half-mile. Children may arrive 15 minutes early to take part in a bat-related craft. 

This program is for ages 6 and older. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.  

Advance registration required. Learn more and register here.
