FAQ’s
Hunting season is September through October. Best time to hunt is during the rut in September.
September offers warm, mild days, though evenings get cooler, while October transitions to significantly colder, wetter, and potentially unpredictable weather, requiring layers, rain gear, and a forecast check before your trip. Daily high temperatures will drop from around 72°F in early September to about 66°F by early October, eventually falling to roughly 54°F by late October, with nighttime lows also decreasing from approximately 52°F to 37°F.
Most of our red stag hunting in Hungary takes place from Gatwick, using EasyJet. There is no problem with firearms. Clients simply supply details to the outfitter and carry a FAC and European Firearms Pass.
The outfitter will meet you at the Budapest airport, and will use mini-buses to drive you to the lodge. The drives from the airport are from 45 -120 minutes while the farthest estate, in the south-west of Hungary, is up to four hours away. When you arrive at the lodge, lunch or dinner will be waiting, including a Hungarian welcoming drink. If there is time after lunch an evening high seat outing or stalking can be arranged with dinner afterwards.
When the hunt is finished there is a transfer back to Budapest Airport and, if there is sufficient time, a short visit to the Agricultural Museum in Budapest is included to see the world record Hungarian trophies and something of Hungary’s hunting history.
You’ll be staying in an outstanding hunting lodge, several of which are of traditional and historical design. All have twin or double beds with showers and toilets. In addition, disabled hunters are catered for as several hunting grounds have specialized areas with suitable accommodation and hunting facilities.
Meals largely consist of traditional Hungarian cuisine, mostly based on meat taken on the hunting ground. Anyone with special dietary needs should advise the outfitter when booking.
Most hunts will have a 5-10kg (270-280″) potential, with an average of 6-8kg (290-310″). Cull hunts or trophy hunts for 10+kg stags can be arranged, but pricing can vary greatly, and the outfitter must have pre-planning to allow for scouting.
