Our program of natural history rambles starts on June 1st. These are short and very informal and easy going 'Rambles' (as opposed to 'Walks') led by Becky at a series of different locations around the island. As the name suggests, they involve a great deal of stopping to peer at and identify all sorts of plants, birds, bugs, beetles, lichens and liverworts. They are very easy going, a perfect day out for all ages, abilities and levels of natural history knowledge. One of the fun things that Becky hopes that you will help her with is to create lists of all the different species that you find - which is actually great fun.
The rambles must be booked in advance, by phoning either the Centre (01496 850288) or mobile (07967 205229) at any time up to 1.00pm on the day. Each ramble starts at 2.00pm and lasts for around two hours. There is nothing strenuous involved, but please come prepared with waterproof footwear and clothing to suit the weather.
At Bunnahabhain: we meet beside the road before it turns down to the distillery.
At Kilchiaran: we meet by the chapel. There is plenty of parking in the laybys.
At Sanaigmore: there's plenty of parking at the end of the road.
At Killinallan: meet where the road ends in a (usually) locked gate.
At Ardnave: beside the loch where the track turns left towards the farm.
At Kintra: in the signposted car park through the gate out of the farm yard.
