The centre hosts a rare population of golden eagles and sea eagles that are often showcased for educational awareness.
Many of the resident birds were brought to the facility as injured wildlife that could not be released back into the wild due to permanent physical impairment.
The facility serves as a satellite site for broader national conservation efforts involving the monitoring and protection of native Scottish birds of prey.
It is situated within the grounds of the Loch Lomond Shores complex, integrated into the larger park landscape.
The Loch Lomond Bird of Prey Centre is a specialized conservation and rehabilitation facility located within Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. It houses an extensive collection of raptors, including eagles, hawks, falcons, and owls, many of which have been rescued or are part of active breeding programs. The center focuses on education and wildlife preservation, providing visitors with up-close observations of these species in a controlled environment. Located near the southern shores of Loch Lomond, the center operates as a key hub for avian conservation efforts in central Scotland. The facility allows for direct engagement through educational displays and interaction with professional bird handlers.
