Combined Beginner/Intermediate Falconry for Two


The Broadmoor Falconry Beginners/Intermediate Lesson offers guests the rare opportunity to experience the 4,000-year-old sport of falconry, or "the sport of kings." This incredible lesson allows you to feel the thrill of working with majestic birds of prey. Most of our lesson takes place against the backdrop of Colorado Springs, one of the most scenic areas in the country. You will get the chance to interact with a variety of captive-bred, trained birds, including owls, falcons, and hawks. The lesson begins by being transported to our mews where you will meet all of our birds. After learning the appropriate techniques from our professional falconer, you'll venture out onto one of The Broadmoor's scenic trails. Once there, you will don a falconry glove, and have a trained hawk placed on your gloved fist. Under supervision of our expert, you will cast the hawk into a nearby pine and watch as it follows you from tree to tree, returning right to your glove for a small reward. This is a once in a lifetime experience.
