Ardnamurchan Natural History Centre
The centre houses displays and information about the challenges golden eagles face day-to-day to ensure their survival and that they rear healthy chicks, as well as about the huge range of other wildlife that make the Ardnamurchan Peninsula their home.
Golden eagles, with their huge wingspan, keen vision and powerful claws, are what Ardnamurchan is all about. You can get close to these amazing birds of prey at the Ardnamurchan Natural History Centre viewpoint. Staff are on hand at the centre with the latest viewing technology to give you spectacular views of golden eagles in their natural habitat.
