ST. HUBERTUS HUNTING TOURS HUNTING SEASON 2021/2022

LUXURY HUNTING/TOURIST STAY HUNTING IN SLOVAKIA WITH ST. HUBERTUS HUNTING TOURS Located in Central/Eastern Europe, the Republic of Slovakia is a country with a glorious hunting traditions dating back to medieval times. It has a land area of 4 903 500 hectares while the forest land is approximately 2 000 000 hectares, that means about 40 percent of the land area. There are several good reasons for planning a hunting stay in Slovakia. At first there are countless hunting areas all over its territory. Only few countries in Europe can compete with Slovakia in terms of variety of grounds and games. Level, hilly and mountainous grounds (up to 2655 m.a.s.l) rich with varied flora and excellent populations of games. Slovakian people have always been expert in forests and games management. The fact that you can appreciate rich and healthy populations of games that peopled these lands 2000 years ago (as fallow ) is the best proof of that. In a further sign of an excellent management of its fauna, Slovakia can boast the survival of all the European carnivouros species. We are referring first of all to brown bear (Ursus arctos), the Eurasian wolf (Canis lupus lupus), the golden Jackal (Canis aureus) and the European lynx (Lynx lynx). As hunters well know these carnivourous have an essential role in the ecosystem. Last but not least, the Slovakian people have well preserved ancient hunting traditions as forest music (there are several different hunting signals) and the hunters’ language – the “Poľovnícka reč”. Our hunts are organised across the whole country in selected top class estates. It means free range and fenced areas starting from 100 hectares up to 3000 hectares and more where you can hunt ( elaphus), fallow deer ( dama), Eurasian (Sus scrofa), ( capreolus), ( musimon), alpine (Rupicapra rupicapra rupicapra) , brown bear (Ursus arctos), and golden jackal (Canis aureus). The Slovakia has a small population of (Rupicapra rupicapra tatrica) as well but its hunt is strictly prohibited by Slovakina law. The very limited hunting permits that are released each year for chamois regard the Alpine chamois that was introduced in Tatras mountains in the 60s. Beyond individual hunts we offer high standard driven hunts for wild boars and other hoofed games and driven shoots with very high-flying pheasants and ducks. Professional and experienced guides can customize the hunting program based on needs and wishes of each hunter. Quality of trophies is very impressive especially regarding red stags, fallow bucks and wild boars.

Jonathan Travel St. Hubertus Hunting tours [email protected] +420 776 708 813 HUNTING IN SLOVAKIA AND HISTORY Slovakia has a glorious hunting history with ancient traditions that have been preserved until nowadays. The first written reference to hunt on Slovakian dates back around 1050 when the royal hunting grounds have been settled and the hunt become a privilege of the sovereign only. Shortly after that the king started to give some hunting lands to the church keeping still the majority for himself. During the following centuries the hunt was reserved to aristocratic class, with the new bourgeoisie class and its economical power they are entitled as well. That makes the noble class push the sovereign to publish in the 1729 an edict regarding the hunting rules where for example the pheasant protection or ban from hunting females in gravidity were included. The final law administration of the hunting came with the Kaiser Franz Josef I and from 1883 the privilege of the feudal lords is cancelled and the hunting privilege is now strictly connected with the land possession only. During these times also the number of animals were decreased significantly which led to the foundation of fenced areas. Foreign animals are brought and settled there, such as mouflon or fallow deer. It is also the period of the foundation of pheasantries, one of these historical ones we have in our offer.
