Greifvogelflugschau auf Burg Oberkapfenberg
General Information
Flight Demonstration
Experience the raptors of the castle falconry and observe the falconers at their daily work with their hunting partners, the birds of prey. The season starts in May: Saturday and Sunday, 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
No motor-powered flying objects, but birds from the small, yet fast falcon to the enormous gyps vulture fly in this show. They fly just over the heads of the visitors to their falconers, whom they can see over the shoulder, and who explain the birds and their work as professional falconers very well.
The castle terrace of Castle Oberkapfenberg offers excellent wind and thermal conditions. This allows for the close-to-nature free flights of eagles, vultures, condors, and others to become a spectacular experience. Several birds of prey also fly simultaneously, an experience that is hard to find anywhere else in Europe.
Culinary Tip: After the flying show, you can refresh yourself at the Kranawetter restaurant in Castle Oberkapfenberg and then easily tackle the 10-minute ascent to the Lorettokapelle. About 5 kilometers away, you will also find the Prieselbauer with great culinary offerings, a petting zoo, and a large playground.
Experience the Falconers Up Close:
