Partridge, Pheasant & Duck

The Ben Alder Estate mixed game shoot is set in the Allt An’t Sluic glen, a dramatic valley framed by heather-clad hills. The deep ridge and varied terrain provides an exciting challenge with a mix of high, fast-flying birds for an exhilarating day’s sport.

Red Stag Stalking

Ben Alder Estate spans over 56,500 acres of dramatic mountains, lochs, and unspoilt wilderness, offering an exceptional stalking experience. Stalking takes place across four distinct beats, with traditional stalking ponies used in certain areas to access more remote terrain.

Simulated Game

Simulated game shooting offers an experience that closely replicates a traditional driven day, blending the excitement of clay pigeon shooting with the authenticity of a real game shoot. Each drive is carefully designed to mirror classic game shooting, with clays released in lifelike patterns and flight paths that emulate partridge, pheasant, grouse and duck.
