About Badger Watch
The evening starts with a short walk looking for signs of badger activity and learning about these nocturnal creatures. We will then settle down and hopefully observe the badgers when they emerge for their evening of hunting and play. A torch is essential and insect repellent is recommended.
How to get there:
Badger Watch starts at By Barkrack Barrier in Forest Of Dean. Coleford, Monmouth, Ross-On-Wye, Cinderford, and Lydney are the nearest towns or villages.
Follow the A4136 road towards Monmouth after Staunton turn off at first barrier on the righthand side.
