Go Bats!
Join a Ranger for an informative chat about bats before heading out on a walk to track down these fascinating nocturnal animals.
Join us for a night time walk around the palace and peel as we search for Linlithgow's nocturnal inhabitants. Bat detectors will be available to help us track down these elusive creatures, but don't forget to bring a torch!
Entry to the palace is not included.
