About Jupiter Urban Wildlife Centre

Jupiter is one of Scotland’s finest examples of the reclamation of disused industrial land for wildlife and people. This urban nature oasis is right in the middle of industrial Grangemouth and is a haven for birds, butterflies and wildflowers. The Centre offers:

• A fantastic place to explore and relax - come and picnic, walk or even use our BBQ
• Self-led activities including pond dipping, mini beast safaris and tree orienteering
• Wildlife gardens showing how you can attract more wildlife to your own garden
• Regular wildlife events - guided walks, children's activities and much more
• Formal and informal education for schools and other community groups all-year-round
• Wildflowers to buy from our partners, BTCV Scotland’s Jupiter Wildflower Nursery
