About This Deal
The Deal
Entry to the Gauntlet will allow families full-day access to the centre's wide range of majestic and deadly birds of prey, in both their enclosures and for flying displays (usually £23 family entry). Winged beasts on show include the national animal of the USA, the bald eagle; the carnivorous scavenger that is the African white backed vulture; skilled hunter harris hawk; marabou storks with a three metre wingspan and Asian Brahminy kite. Providing them with energy for more touring, adults can sip from a hot drink such as tea or coffee (£1.20 each) and children a cup of juice (80p).
The Merchant
Knutsford's Gauntlet Birds of Prey Eagle and Vulture Park was founded in 1996 and since then has grown to house over 120 birds from 46 different species, including hawks, falcons, eagles and owls. It aims to give the public a first-hand experience of some lesser seen birds, as well as educating youngsters about their value. It also focuses on the conservation of these birds of prey.
Reviews
Gauntlet has an impressive 2,100-plus Likes on Facebook, and a burgeoning Youtube channel. TripAdvisor users have ranked the centre consistently highly, rating it as the top attraction in Knutsford. Praise went to the range of birds, engaging feedings and displays, and informative staff.
