Mountain by Moonlight Walk
Friday 29th September 2023 from 17:30pm to 20:30pm
RSPB South Stack
South Stack Road, Holyhead , Gwynedd, LL65 1YH
Join the team from RSPB South Stack for an evening of Dark Skies and Welsh mythology! We’ll venture out onto the mountain for a guided walk with a difference. In partnership with Priosect NOS, we’ll watch the moon rising from Anglesey’s highest mountain whilst learning about the connections between our stars and the myths and legends handed down through many Welsh generations. Please note that the event is weather-dependent and requires good fitness.
Please note that this has already taken place on 29/09/2023
