Join JAG Outdoors for a very family friendly festive walk around the forest at night.The event starts in the yurt for Christmas treats and a short chat about the stars and the route Santa will take take in a few days time!!
The walk will cover 2-3 miles of trails, and weather permitting there will be a stop for some amazing star gazing opportunities. As an amateur astronomer Jo from JAG Outdoors can help you have some fun finding the major constellations and will have star maps and guides on hand. Please be aware the route will be on a range of surfaces and may be wet and muddy. Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear. Please bring a torch per person if possible. A red filter is ideal for when we stop to star gaze otherwise we will be turning the torches off!
