hawkridge bird of prey centre

family time is all about doing things together and enjoying each others company,
and what better way to spend quality time with the family than out in the fresh country air participating in the ancient sport of the kings

 our family experience allows up to two adults and two children to enjoy first hand the thrill of meeting and flying a selection of our magnificent birds of prey.

from a tiny 5oz scops owl to a 7lb eagle we have some thing for each member of the family.

your afternoon will start with and introduction to the birds we have at the centre including owls, hawks, buzzard, falcons and the magnificent eagle.
as well as getting to handle these magnificent birds you will learn a bit about each species,their habitats, origins, diet and use in the ancient art of falconry.

we will then collect a selection of birds and take them out in to the arena where you will get to help with training, seeing the methods we use to train each individual species,
you will then get to fly them free,
