Falconry Adventure
During our medium-duration hike, we will take some time to stop and learn about the ancient art of falconry. But that’s not all: get ready for an adrenaline rush as we watch the falcons stoop through the air at incredible speed – sometimes just centimeters away from our heads! As if that wasn’t exciting enough, each participant will also have the opportunity to hold a trained falcon on its glove and capture unforgettable souvenir photos. After interacting with these amazing birds of prey, it’s time to meet another feathered friend – the Harris hawk! These hawks are known for their exceptional intelligence and hunting skills. So come explore nature like never before while enjoying interactive experiences with our birds of prey!
