Bumble Bee Safari Walk Darwen

Bumble Bee Safari Walk is a slow, gentle wander through Whitehall Park where we’ll actively look for bumblebees, identify different species, and notice the flowers they’re visiting.

This is not a hike and it’s not a lecture. It’s a calm, curious afternoon outdoors, perfect if you love nature, want to learn a little more about pollinators, or simply fancy slowing down and paying attention to what’s alive around you.

Date: Sunday 17 May 2026
Time: 1.00pm to 4.00pm
Meeting point: Rose Garden, Whitehall Park, Darwen
