Hunting in France


If you wish to hunt in France during a holiday we are having solutions for individual hunters as well as for small or bigger groups.

Over the years we've helped many expats too. We can organize everything from license to shotguns rental, accommodation, pick up, etc.

The season starts in June with roe deer stalking, followed by the opening of duck season some time in August, sometimes quail also opens in August in the South of France. Riding to hounds runs from late September to the end of March. We call 'general opening' when everything is on between mid September and late February.

Clay birds shooting is nice during the spring and the summer

Riding to hounds in France 'Chasse à Courre' is a vivid tradition very appreciated by foreign fox hunters. We can arrange this as day trips from Paris or short stays with château or country inn accommodation. Most often in Normandy or in the Loire region but also near Bordeaux. We hunt mainly red deer stag, but also roe deer and wild boar. Read more

Finally what can we arrange for you?

Partridge and pheasant over pointers

Day trips can be organized from Paris or Bordeaux and in Provence. Short forays can be arranged to Normandy, the Loire region and other parts of France. And in Spain, near Seville or near Pamplona.

Birds of passage:
Woodcock over pointers, duck and snipe at seashore marshes, quail sometimes and the famous passing flocks of woodpigeon in the Pyrenees, offer very pleasant days

Driven partridge or pheasant shoots

These elegant and challenging sporting events are usually organized at 1 or 2 hours drive from Paris, most often on the lands of a beautiful castle. Check our old website or our facebook-blog for more pictures depicting the atmosphere and contact us for any offer.

Big game stalking or driven shoots

In France, we are calling 'big game' red-deer, roe-deer and wild boar. Chamois (Isard in the Pyrenees) and mouflon are referred to as mountain game. Ibex is only hunted in Spain. Big game is hunted individually -stalking- or by groups -driven. The driven shoots are typical of the autumn and winter.
