New South Gloucestershire bat trail unveiled
South Gloucestershire Council (SGC) has launched a new audio trail, which is designed to enable visitors to Willsbridge Valley local nature reserve to learn more about bats and other wildlife species.
It is hoped the new trail, which has been developed in partnership with Avon Wildlife Trust, Avon Bat Group, the Breakthrough Project and South Gloucestershire Disability Action Group, will build on the success of similar schemes at three other reserves. Trail packs - including bat detectors, an audio CD trail guide and information about bats - have been made available at local libraries to enable the reserve's visitors to follow 'glow in the dark' trails.
The trail has been funded by the Big Lottery Fund and the Access to Nature Fund, which is co-ordinated by Natural England.
