DEER STALKING & EXPERIENCES
The team at Kirnan Estate Stalking manages the deer on over 16,500 acres of some of Scotland’s most historic and picturesque landscape on the west coast of Scotland - all within a few miles of our base in Kilmichael Glen, Argyll.
We provide opportunities for customers to support our deer management objectives through fully guided deer stalking to harvest wild venison, as well as simulated deer stalking and guided photography and experiences. We are able to offer customers the opportunity to experience our management of Red, Sika and Roe deer across open hill, commercial forestry and native broadleaf environments. In fact, when deer stalking with Kirnan Estate you have the potential to stalk all three species and experience all three environments in the same day or multi-day trip, depending on the season, prevailing weather and our management objectives at the time.

Absolutely! We are super passionate about supporting new participants into deer management. We can tailor our packages for those looking to gain their first experiences of deer stalking, through the provision of specific support and guidance. This includes range-based tuition, the theory behind stalking, deer identification and live field stalking, helping you build your knowledge about deer and management practices.
-
For individuals or groups looking to gain more experience or do not like the idea of harvesting a wild animal but want to understand the process in more detail, we offer simulated deer stalking experiences. This mimics the real deer stalking experience but without the killing of a deer, instead shooting at metal reactive deer targets within real-world stalking scenarios.
Guests will spend time on the rifle range before being guided by one of our Deer Managers around the simulated stalking scenarios. Using this as an opportunity to share their insights on our local deer herds, gives you a unique insight into the deer management practices we follow at Kirnan Deer Stalking.
-
All carcasses harvested by our guests and management team are processed by us into the human food chain. Guests are welcome to purchase the carcass at wholesale prices or can purchase ready processed venison via our store and stalkers’ honesty fridge.
