Your Trip

Our trip is “à la carte”.

You will determine, with us, the hunting period and number of days. 2 to 3 days are more than enough to shoot the selected deer.

The classic hunting trip is composed of 3 days – 4 nights. You will be able to hunt during the whole day, only with a short break during lunch.

Our only method of hunting is by stalking.

Typical day: Quick 5am breakfast at the hunting lodge. Your guide will be present and will accompany you during the morning stalk. Back to the lodge during late morning. Second breakfast and honors to the fallen animals and to the hunters (beautiful Hungarian tradition). Lunch, if you wish in early afternoon and stalking until dawn.

Game and Trophies

Mid-October (start of the rut), you will hunt in priority a high trophy deer (3kg minimum). You will have tens of shooting opportunities during your trip even if the guards (professionals and presents for years) will only allow you to shoot 10 years old or more deers.

You will be able to witness “ extra-size ”… 5.0 to 6.0kg trophies! Among the top 10 world records, six deers come from this very territory, podium included…

After shooting your desired deer(s), you will be able to hunt younglings or boars (high number – 900 to 1000 yearly quota).

Your trophy will have to go through National Cotation (Hungarian Law), which is an insurance in matter of trophies, for both height, weight but also CIC points and thus pricing.

Trophies 1st preparation is included in the price. However, following your wishes, we will discuss with our Hungarian taxidermist or will deliver trophies and pelts to your own personal taxidermist.
