This centre is the largest in the North West. The experienced staff offer extensive knowledge and you may interact with these magnificent birds of prey up close before learning how to fly them to the fist. You will have the opportunity to go on a hawk walk where you can witness a team of birds interact and fly together. These birds are not trained to do tricks they simply mimic what comes naturally to them.

How wonderful to be able to get so close to the birds of prey at the centre, it's an amazing feeling when a bird flies to your fist. We had a really interesting tour, the trainers are great and very experienced. I took so many photos! The hawk walk was brilliant as you're just watching the birds do what's natural to them, it's a beautiful sight as they swoop around the countryside.

Our son had a brilliant birds of prey day, so thank you buyagift for giving us the idea. He was enthralled by the birds, especially how they fly to the fist, and he said the countryside walk was great as you saw the birds out in the open against a lovely scenic backdrop.
