Stalking Jura is famed for the size of its stags with the mild climate and calcium rich seaweed producing substantially larger hill stags than found on the mainland. Ruantallain is well known as one of Scotland's more prolific and spectacular deer forests, divided into six beats with a possibility of two rifles being fielded each day. The topography is varied, and includes the lower lying seashore areas, and extending up to the more rugged higher ground. Stalking is available for up to two rifles, with an expectation of 2 stags per day.
Fishing The estate has salmon, sea trout and brown trout fishing on primarily the River Oisdale system and a number of brown trout lochs. The fishing is included as part of the tenancy.
