About the event

Drop by St Nicholas Park to find out what creatures are lurking in the shadows! Learn ghoulish and grim facts about bats, bugs, and deadly plants in this spooky scavenger hunt. Head down to The Owl Tree Community Nest afterwards for a sweet treat (no tricks).

Disclaimer: this is not a scary event! It involves searching for information boards around the site and recording findings against a checklist. Suitable for the whole family, with different difficulty levels to challenge both older and younger children. Recommended for ages 4+. Please book one ticket for each child attending, to give us an idea of numbers.

This is an outdoor event, on a site with some open water. Children must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Please wear clothing and footwear suitable for the activity and the weather.

Part of our Championing Nature Project, a new programme aimed at creating positive, lasting impact in urban communities through greater connections and engagement with nature. Made possible by Wimbledon and Emirates partnership.
