Enjoy Eagles Flying Irish Raptor Research Centre

Did you ever dream of Eagles swooping only inches above your head or having a bird of prey landing on your own hand?

Multi award-winning attraction for all the family – excitement, fun and lots of photo opportunities. Ireland’s oldest Bird of Prey Centre offers close-up experiences. During the highly entertaining and interactive Bird Shows, you can experience Eagles, Hawks, Falcons, Vultures and Owls some with a 3-metre wingspan swooping right over your head, or landing next to you. Some of them even allow you to touch them – bus ask one of the bird’s trainers first! You might even have the chance of a bird landing on your hand.

Enjoy guided tours, take a walk through parklands, see birds in aviaries, and cuddle animals in the petting zoo. Interactive bird shows start at 10:30 & 14:30 daily and, in case of rain, the show is available in an indoor arena.
