Deer stalking website offline

The new website offering access information about deer stalking is temporarily out of action. Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) which hosts the site is advising people wanting information about where stalking is taking place to use the Hillphones system instead.

The new website was launched in August this year with the aim to provide easy to access and up to date information to help walkers plan their routes during the stalking season. The Hillphones system uses a series of recorded messages from a number of Scottish Estates which take part. More information about Hillphones including telephone numbers can be found here.

SNH says that the deer stalking information website will be back up and running as soon as possible. The site which is known as “Heading for the Scottish Hills” can be found here.
