Sweden and Scotland stand as quintessential European hunting destinations.

To hunt the highlands, where the resounding roars of Red stags resonate, is an experience that sends shivers down your spine. Alternatively, hunting the elusive Roebuck is a must while you are there. You can go fly fishing for salmon and trout, troll for pike and seatrout, indulge in a round of golf, or, of course, explore whisky distilleries. These are just a few of the diverse activities we can facilitate during your stay.

Included in the hunt package are one Scottish Red stag and one Swedish Roebuck. However, there is no set limit on the number of stags you can harvest, with additional stags available for a trophy fee.

Hunting in Sweden

Your hunt begins in the Swedish landscape where you’ll hunt Roebucks in fields and small woodland areas—prime habitat for these graceful little deer. These hunts typically unfold during the early morning or late evening hours. It’s worth noting that Sweden boasts some of the best trophy Roebuck hunting opportunities in the world. In addition to roe deer, in Sweden you can also hunt European Red stag, European moose, Fallow stag, Mouflon, Wild boar, and even European Bison, not to mention the superb wingshooting.

Hunting in Scotland

Crossing over to the Scottish highlands, the Red stag hunting becomes the focal point of your hunt—a classic endeavor of spot and stalk. While the Red stags of Scotland may not be as large as their European counterparts, the experience is nothing short of remarkable. Aside from the Red stag, Scotland also has some great hunting for Sika Stags, provided we receive prior notification of your interest in these additional species.

Non-hunters are cordially welcomed into this Highland haven.

The very ambiance of the region lends itself to a profoundly relaxing holiday. For those eager to delve further into the cultural tapestries of Sweden and Scotland, our outfitter is adept at organizing sightseeing excursions within the vicinity. Additionally, opportunities for local shopping, with a focus on tweed and other indigenous products, abound. Some of the more popular tours include visits to Loch Ness, the Inverness whisky distillery, Stockholm, and the Royal Palace, to name just a few.
