About this event

  • Event lasts 10 days 2 hours

On this walk around the riverside paths in Ullapool, we will be looking and listening for nature. There are wildflowers aplenty bordering the paths, trees will be freshly in leaf and the wild animals that enjoy the woodland and river habitats will be busy with spring.

The pace will be slow and mellow and you can learn about some of the things we will see as we go.
