About the experience
Prepare to be amazed at this Cheshire falconry venue, where you will be greeted by an impressive array of around 85 birds of prey. With one of the largest collections in the country, this centre near Northwich offers an unforgettable experience with its half-day, taster, and combo raptor encounters. Your session will kick off with an up-close introduction to the majestic birds of prey in the aviary and out on the weathering lawn. You will then be equipped with a glove and expertly guided on how to entice the birds to land on your hand. The exhilarating feeling of a raptor landing so gracefully and softly on your hand for the first time is truly awe-inspiring. Despite any initial nerves, by the end of your immersive experience with the raptors, you will have formed an incredible bond with these amazing creatures. For an added thrill, consider enhancing your encounter with the raptors by adding on a Segway ride around the centre to round off your unforgettable experience in the Cheshire countryside. Open to the public, this welcoming Cheshire falconry centre is a highly sought-after visitor attraction. It has excellent on-site facilities, including an award-winning restaurant. We are confident that you will revel in these diverse and profoundly interactive raptor experiences!
