Are you an experienced deer hunter who has already seen a lot? Even then, you’ll experience something in Romania that you’ve never experienced before. When the loud roars of the Carpathian stag echoes along the mountain sides during the rut, even you will find the hairs on your arms standing on end!

For trophy crowns and many-pointed racks, there are other countries. Carpathian deer are all about mass – antler weights of 7 kg to 10 kg are the norm here, but heavier racks are also common.

And what about their considerable physique? Gutted, the scale still easily passes the 200 kg point. You will not find larger deer in the wild on European soil.

Hunting area

Huge mountain massifs, endless primeval forests and vast Alpine meadows – here you can visit places where no hunter has gone before. Wolves, bears and lynx rule here and ensure that only the biggest and strongest game species survive.

You can see this in the capital trophy roebucks, wild boars and red deer. It also explains why Romania is the cradle of so many established world records, some of which still stand today.

Hunting season

If your schedule permits, come to Romania in the last week of September. That is the time of the high rut and the experience is most intense and your chances are the highest.

In our experience, for 7 kg to 10 kg stags, four days of hunting are enough to make good on your opportunity. For the largest antlers, we recommend 5 days of hunting. That should be enough to pick out your dream stag.

Travel details

Athletic hunters have an advantage when stalking through the mountains. The fitter you are, the more metres you will cover during an outing. You can then really enjoy the wild nature and beautiful panoramas along the way.

But even with a basic level of fitness, it is possible to experience an exciting hunting adventure for red deer in the lower parts of the Carpathians.

One of our priorities is to accommodate our hunters in single rooms, unless otherwise requested. This can be a hotel, a small cosy guesthouse or a hunting lodge. They are sometimes rustically furnished, but always with clean rooms and each with its own shower and toilet. Basic services we value highly. All our Romanian hunting trips include full board.
