About CSTG
Scotland is widely recognised as the birthplace of many of the world’s
premier country sports.
It is estimated
that the value of country sports tourism to Scotland is in the region of
£240m per year. In the UK there are over 4 million country sports
participants, with many more overseas including 38 million in the USA.
To help develop
the full potential of this market, 2004 saw the major Scottish country
sporting organisations and associations set up the Scottish Country
Sports Tourism Group (CSTG). For more information on this and other
