Outdoor Adventures: 3,000 Acres, No Two Days Alike

Gorge walks beneath mossy crags, guided estate safaris to the high ground, wild water and open moor, Craigengillan is a landscape made for being out in.

Start with Ness Glen, one of the finest gorge walks in the south of Scotland, where the River Doon runs black and fast beneath hanging gardens of fern and moss. Climb out of the trees and the estate opens up: heather moor, hill lochs and views to Loch Doon.

Guided estate tours reach the places walkers rarely see, and the team can point you to swimming spots, waterfall pools and the best sunrise on the property. At night, stay out late, the estate sits beside the Galloway Forest Dark Sky Park and the stars are extraordinary.
