The Hawk Conservancy Trust is a full day out for the whole family where you can get close to some of the world’s most incredible birds of prey! Come see our brilliant birds at some of the most spectacular flying displays in the UK, changing with the seasons so you’ll experience something new every time you visit. Watch in wonder as our birds soar across the skies and through the trees, giving you and the family a chance to see owls, vultures, and eagles up close.
BRAND NEW for summer 2025 – A new flying display lands at the Hawk Conservancy Trust Saturday 5 April! Witness Woodland Wonders and feel even more connected to nature as owls, and more, fly close. Plus, the woodland itself will spring to life around you with new developments and special effects that truly immerse you in this special space.
In between the three daily flying displays, there are plenty of activities to keep you and the children entertained, including tractor rides (weekends and school holidays only), a nest-building activity, talks, and more! Get the children outside and immersed in nature as they explore our 22 acres of woodland and wildflower meadow on our two nature trails: Vulture Voyagers and a Tree Trail.
