There's always plenty to see at Loch Gruinart. In the autumn months, thousands of white-fronted and barnacle geese arrive from Greenland. When they leave in spring, wading birds take centre stage, with the courtship displays of snipe, redshanks and curlews.
Watch it all take place from our viewing centre and hide, or from your car along the roadside. During the summer months we offer guided walks, when we'll listen out for the corncrake and try and spot a golden eagle or two
