Welcome to Bowhunter Archery

Located in the stunning Highland region of Scotland, within 20 minutes drive from Inverness, and nearby to historic sites such as Culloden, Cawdor, and Fort George. 

Join one of our friendly, small-group sessions for an unforgettable adventure. All sessions are suitable for beginners, so come and experience the thrill of Woodland Archery where experienced instructors lead you along woodland pathways to our fantastical 3d archery zones.

Meet Dinosaurs and Dragons, visit the mythical Highland Glen. Perhaps the popular Creepy Graveyard is more your scene!  You could also channel your inner Viking warrior with Axe Throwing - maybe combine the two in our Bow and Axe session. Or would you prefer to learn survival skills with our Bushcrafting expert? Investigate our local flora and fauna, build a survival shelter, learn safe fire lighting (and extinguishing!), great chance to meet our resident Red Squirrels too!

We offer a bespoke multi-activity experience for groups of 8 - 30 pers. Or for smaller groups (6 - 20 pers.) you can choose from our standard activities and we can open up extra spaces/add on extra time. Contact us via email or the Booking Form in the first instance, and let's see how we can help you. A great idea is always the Combat Archery, this adrenaline filled game is held in our specially designed woodland arena (like dodgeball but with a bow and safety arrow). Younger children (age 7+) would enjoy the Find-craft scavenger Minecraft themed Party or our very popular Woodland Activity Parties.
