Running through the famous Glen Tilt, this stretch of water offers unparalleled scenery and an abundance of wildlife. The estate lets two beats on the river with the upper beat reserved for those staying at Forest Lodge.
The headwaters of the Tilt serve as important spawning grounds for the Tay River system, and the Tilt normally enjoys a consistent and strong run of salmon from July through to the season close in October. Each beat provides double bank fishing for 3 rods along about 2000 yards. The water forms a series of shallow pools with the occasional deeper holding pool.
Although the Tilt is a very productive water, guests who are unfamiliar with it are well advised to hire the services of a ghillie for at least their first day. Contact details for a ghillie can be obtained from Atholl Estates, details included in the booking confirmation.
