Equipment
You will need warm clothing suitable for the season, your hunting equipment, ammunition, your hunting weapon, your hunting certificate, your weapon permit and other personal belongings you may need. It’s also very important that you have one pair of boots, well walked in.

Terrain
The terrain is shifting, from dry pine hills to old grown forest and moors. The terrain we hunt in can be physically difficult and we recommend out guests to be in good physical condition.

Insurance

All clients are responsible to make arrangements for the insurance policy. We recommend all our guests to have a travel insurance. To be part of any hunting activities, you must have a valid hunting insurance. Nordic Footprints will arrange a hunting insurance.

Meals
Normally the meals consists of continental breakfast, simple lunch and 2 course dinner.

We try to make Swedish meals, like Elkknul with potatoes, blackcurrant jelly and mushroom sauce.  But of course we also like to be inspired of the traditional European kitchen. If you have any special needs for food please let us know at the time for your booking.

Non hunters
If you wish to bring along non hunters the charge is 100 Euro per night and per person. This includes breakfast and dinner. A lunch box can be made during breakfast. The non hunters cannot be part of the hunt and they cannot walk with the hunters. If you wish to bring along hunters during the hunt we must arrange hunting permits and hunting insurance which cost 100 Euro extra per person. Please observe that this should be booked in advance and if not booked in advance it must be arranged during your stay and can mean that the time in the forest will be less.

Please also observe that we have a maximum of 3 guests per guide (including hunters and non hunters). The number of guides per group is based on the number of hunting guests. If there is need for additional guides you will be charged according to the hunting price list (with a deduction of 25% for non hunters).

Final payment
Upon arrival you need to pay the final amount in cash to your guide. Please observe that we only accept cash upon arrival. We have no possibility to accept credit cards. If you wish to pay VISA or MasterCard we can create a pay link and email to you. Please notify us 1 week before your arrival.

Guide
Please observe all the hunting is done with guide and guides must be booked in advance. Please make sure you have the guide ratio you wish, normally 1 guide for 2-3 guests. It might be possible to book extra guides upon arrival but we cannot guarantee this.

Hunting dog
If you bring your own dog, you find useful information here: Regulations about import of dogs to Sweden.

Please observe that guide with hunting dog must be booked in advance. In some cases we can arrange a hunting dog with short notice but this is very difficult. When the booking is finalized we must now if you wish to rent hunting dog or not. Food for customer dogs is not included. 

When hunting in Estonia we only use our own dogs.

Rules and liability release
Upon arrival you must read and sign the document “Hunting rules & Liability release”. If you have not received this document after your booking please contact us.

Game included
Please see your invoice/confirmation regarding included game. In the document “Hunting rules & Liability release” this will be repeated. This document also stipulates the additional trophy fees. Please observe that no game can be transferred to another guest. (e.g. if hunter A does not shoot anything and hunter B shoots 2 capercaillies the same day, hunter B cannot transfer this game to hunter A but must pay trophy fees according to the price list).

Since we work with wild animals we can never guarantee that we will find the animals. However, if you listen to the advice from our guide you increase your chances. We have a big animal stock and we take well care of the hunting ground to keep it this way.

Below you find what is included in the trophy fee. We will process the trophies for you and if time allows you will take them with you when you leave, otherwise we will send them to you.

Wild boar: Tusks
Roebuck: Horns
Elk: Horns
Small game: Paw or tail
Birds: The whole bird, unprocessed

If nothing else is agreed to, the meat and skin is the property of Nordic Footprints AB and its partners. If desired we can arrange other forms of trophies if agreed to in advance.

Import of weapon
We will make all the formalities providing we get the necessary documents at least 8 weeks before the arrival date at the Swedish borders.

Weapon and ammunition
For bird hunting with pointing dog you should bring shotgun calibre 12-20
For trophy hunting rifle
222 Rem-6,5x55.(Shooting distance:100-200 meters.)

If you bring your own weapon, ammunition is not included in the price. There is no place nearby where you can by ammunition upon arrival.
