The Birds of Prey & Conservation Centre at Sion Hill Hall, near Thirsk, was setup to ensure that birds of prey would survive, and to provide the public with a rare opportunity to see and enjoy these beautiful birds.

Enjoy the thrills and excitement of falconry at the Birds of Prey and Conservation Centre, with over 70 birds from 30 species. Eagles, falcons, hawks, kites, vultures and owls will swoop and dive around you as you sit in a beautiful English garden. Our skilled handlers will explain why the birds hunt and fly as they do, where they come from in the wild and how they are trained. Discover at first hand what makes these birds masters of the skies.

Please Note:
We are weather dependent so before setting off you can call ahead to make sure the flying displays are going to go ahead.
