Spot our night time wildlife on this special torchlight tour!

When the sun goes down, many Aussie animals wake up and the trees, creeks and ponds come to life. From the common brush-tailed and ring-tailed possums to bandicoots, tiny bats, owls, gliders, insects, arachnids and amphibians, the Hunter Wetlands Centre is thriving after dark with nocturnal animals who use the twilight and darkness to forage for food and interact.

Experienced guide, John, will be leading us through the wetlands woodlands and reeds in search of our nocturnal residents. On the way, he will share fascinating facts and insights about their behaviour and answer your questions.

This is a rare opportunity to visit the wetlands after dark and encounter animals not visible during the day.

This tour is suitable for children 5 years and older accompanied by an adult.

When to Arrive: Kindly arrive at the Hunter Wetlands Centre Carpark 15mins prior to 6pm start time.

What to Bring: Please wear warm clothes (including hats), enclosed shoes, insect repellant and carry drinking water. You also need to bring a small torch to see where you are walking. There is no need for high-powered torches as this will be brought by the Guide.
