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

If nothing else is agreed to, the meat and skin is the property of

forms of trophies if agreed to in advance.

providing we get the necessary documents at least 8 weeks before the
