  • You must wear suitable clothing!

    Most BioBlitz surveys will be held outside during the day in dense vegetation. Therefore, you need to wear lightweight, sun-smart clothing and closed shoes.

    We strongly recommend a long-sleeved collared shirt, long trousers, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses. Sturdy shoes are essential. In the case of a rain forecast, please bring an umbrella or rain clothes.

  • This is a family-friendly event, but children aged 5 to 15 must be accompanied and supervised by a parent or carer. Participating in surveys is not suitable for kids younger than 5 years.

  • While most surveys are considered easy using established tracks, some off-track and night-me walks may be more moderate difficulty for some people. Please carefully consider your personal fitness and comfort levels when deciding which survey to join.

  • Any outdoor activity in nature has inherent risks. We might encounter (and hopefully will encounter!) wildlife. We’ll be walking over uneven ground and exploring a range of vegetation types. It will likely be sunny, hot, and humid. You must remain alert to your surroundings and tell your survey leader or organising team if you feel unwell or require first aid.

    To ensure your safety and comfort as well as the safety of the wildlife and the protection of the environment, please always follow the instructions of the survey leaders and event organisers.

  • Please arrive early and check in at our Base Camp (or advised location) for a short briefing before you join your booked BioBlitz survey. Arrival, start and end times are available on the booking page.
