Spotlighting provides the local community with the chance to see nocturnal animals, such as Southern Greater Gliders.

Both events will be at the Greater Mount Alexandra Reserve.

Wingecarribee Shire Council staff and Ecologist Ana Gracanin will lead the walk.

Meet at Box Vale Walking track before walking to Picnic Table on Box Vale Track near the lookout over the Nattai Gorge.

Walk back in the dark and enjoy the evening ambiance and the quiet of the night, while searching for eyeshine in the trees.

  • Sturdy hiking boots and a jacket if it's cool. 
  • BYO - warm soup or beverage of choice and snacks to enjoy on the way.
