Nacht van de nacht

The IVN Laarbeek Events Working Group is once again hosting the nationwide activity Night of the Night. 

Let the dark be dark and discover how beautiful the night is. The Night of the Night is an annual event organized by the Nature and Environmental Federations and local nature associations. During the Night of the Night, events are organized across the country in the dark. The aim is to raise awareness about the light pollution that surrounds you and how it affects animals that are active in the dark. In addition, hundreds of companies and municipalities turn off lights on buildings and advertising signs. To experience this and provide further explanation, they are holding a walk in the dark at Eyckenlust Castle in Beek en Donk. It is also not intended to bring a flashlight or anything similar. The start of the walk and the meeting point are scheduled at the gas station on Brugstraat 4 in Beek en Donk.

The walk is guided by Giel Jacobs, Ria van Liempd, and Monique Smit. You don't need to sign up in advance: you can just join. You can find more information on the website or on the IVN Facebook page.
