Brown Bear

Online Winter Roadshow

Our Online Roadshow is returning to your screens for this autumn and winter! From January to March this year, we took a step into the unknown and launched our traditional Roadshow online for the first time – and were delighted to be joined by hundreds of viewers every evening! Confined indoors by lockdown and cold winter nights, our expert staff and leaders were pleased to provide you all with some inspiration, welcome escapism and a warm-hearted Naturetrek community in which to ask us, and fellow travellers, questions about your wildlife holiday plans – all without leaving your living room!

So we once again invite you, your friends and family, to get comfortable with a glass of wine and some nibbles, and tune in to the upcoming presentation evenings below over the next few months. We will also continue presentations into 2022, so keep an eye on this page for future dates!

Finally, if you missed any of the presentations from earlier in the year, you can catch up on the recordings at the bottom of this page.
