Wupper Association's Bat Excursion at Diepentalsperre in Leverkusen

The Wupper Association, celebrating its 95th anniversary this year, is organising a series of events to engage the community and highlight the importance of nature and environmental conservation. One such event is a bat excursion at Diepentalsperre in Leverkusen, scheduled for August 15th and 22nd.

This free event invites participants aged 14 and above to embark on an evening tour to observe and learn about local bat species in their natural habitat near the reservoir. To join, prior registration is required as the number of participants is limited to ten per event. Registration can be done by emailing [email protected].

During the excursion, participants will be equipped with flashlights and "bat detectors" to aid in the search for these fascinating creatures. The event aims to educate participants about the lifestyle, orientation, migration, and protection of bats.

It's important to note that the exact meeting point for the bat excursion will be announced upon registration. Participants are also encouraged to bring sturdy footwear for the tour.

The bat excursion is not the only event offered by the Wupper Association and its partners. The association is organising a variety of events throughout the year to present its tasks and make the theme of water, the Wupper, and its tributaries tangible. For specific dates, times, and detailed program information about the 95th anniversary events and other activities, we recommend checking the official Wupperverband website or local Bergisches Land event listings directly.

Please note that the bat excursion may be cancelled in case of bad weather. For more information about these additional events, visit the Wupper Association's homepage.
