About
When ospreys returned to breed in Scotland, this ancient Caledonian pineforest is where they chose to come. The Loch Garten Osprey Centre provides fantastic views of these magnificent birds on the nest, as well as close up views thanks to their non-invasive CCTV camera.
The reserve also has some excellent walks, with the chance to see red squirrels, dragonflies and crested tits. Early in spring, join them for Caper-watch and see the spectacular display of the capercaillie, Scotland’s largest grouse.
Opening times
Open daily from 10:00am to 6:00pm from April to the end of August.
Last entry to the centre is at 5:00pm.
During spring, the centre is also open daily for Caper-watch (to see capercaillies) from 5:30am to 8:00am.
