Amazing! Show moves along at a good pace with so many wonderful birds! Would recommend to all. Picture with owl was excellent afterward.
Linda_S, Jul 2025
A wonderful few hours, explanations in german and italian on the birds. Even an extra showman on a horse to close up. Worth another visit. Easy to get to by bus and then a short walk. Bathrooms, ice cream and restaurants on site.

Very interesting information about falcons and the history of falconry. Very beautiful birds in a beautiful setting.

The show. Very well done, indeed! Good comments and fantastic presentation. We learnt a lot . Nice experience.
Cheryl_J, Jul 2023
Fascinating and amazing to have the birds so close. You were able to fully appreciate their size, wingspan, and ability to manoeuvre.
Monika_B, May 2023
This was way better than I expected. Great for kids. The various owls, falcons, eagles, etc. fly right over the audience and there's a lot of information given. Shame there is no English, though. Overall an entertaining hour!
Oana_M, Aug 2022
Amazing experience, highly recommend the show. The only downside is that the show is only in Italian and German nevertheless, it is all worth it. It is a must if you are in Locarno.
Beat_F, Aug 2021

Very nice experience at the Falconeria.
We went there two days and assisted to the wonderful spectacle with these beautiful birds.
I am sure that they would like to be free . . . .

The well-kept facility is a power place. Friendly staff, clean and beautifully planted. So it is often assumed that the animals are cared for lovingly. In the show you were always a bit part of it and the presenters were informative, creative and fun. The restaurant/food is also great.A lively place for young and old

Bellissimo ed interessante! Il presentatore dello spettacolo parla in italiano e in tedesco. Adatto per tutti. Andateci perchè e veramente grandioso! Si possono acquistare anche biglietti online. Noi abbiamo fatto le foto con i rapaci. Per pranzo abbiamo gustato i ravioli alla zucca: buonissimi! Noi siamo andati già 3 volte.

Ein beeindruckend grosser Park mit vielen Vögeln und auch Koi- Karpfen, die man füttern kann. So standen sie bei den Kindern natürlich hoch im Kurs 😁
Bei der spektakulären Show mit Greifvögeln und anderen Riesen der Lüfte erfährt man viel und staunt immer wieder über die Ästhetik.
Peter_M, Sept 2024
Es ist immer wieder ein schönes Erlebnis.
Ein Schritt näher an unserem Traum vom Fliegen.
Vielleicht erhaschen wir das nächste mal eine Glücksfeder.
Gianluca_P, Sept 2024
Giornata con rapaci che ti volano a pochi centimetri dalla testa in un parco che trasmette serenità, tanti spazi per pic nic e relax, bar e ristorante,
Spettacolo con i rapaci straordinario come le spiegazioni sui singoli uccelli fornite dagli addestratori
Grazia_P, Sept 2024
Bellissima esperienza da consigliare a bambini ma anche adulti.
Parcheggi vicini, bel parco con zona giochi per bambini. Ristorante sul posto. Personale gentile.
