Falconry
Falconry
Birds of prey have fascinated adult and child alike for hundreds of years. Graceful and often elusive, the power and intelligence of these birds will astound you.
Get face to face with a Harris hawk, a bird which has no qualms about attacking prey bigger than itself. Or hold an eagle and have it fly to your hand. Will your eye be quick enough to spot the peregrine falcon as it goes into a 200mph stoop? Whatever your age there is something for you in our falconry section. Spend time handling birds, visit the aviaries or watch a display as the birds fly directly over your head!
We have a wide range of experiences to choose from including:
Raptor Encounter: A 1 ½ hour experience where you get to take the gauntlet and fly two raptors yourself in our purpose built arena.
Owl Encounter: Meet, hold and fly a range of owl species. This experience is also available in a junior format suitable for children from 4 to 14 years.
Eagle Adventure: Take on our largest bird of prey; hold and fly them in our outdoor arena for the ultimate falconry experience.
Family Falconry: Looking for something for all ages? Try our family falconry experience where you can all hold and fly a variety of birds from our collection.
Make it a full day of falconry or combine it with other activities and make it an outdoor activity day to remember.
