From Perigord to the Pyrenees
France has an excellent population of red deer and from mid-September many French forests echo to the roar of rutting stags, one of the most fantastic “shows” in nature. It is at this time of the year that the rarely seen big stags emerge from the depths of the big forests to ensure the continuation of the species.
Whether you choose to hunt in the Pyrenees or in the Dordogne the hunt will take place in beautiful districts, rich in game, amongst wonderful scenery, and you will always be accompanied by a skilled hunting guide who really knows the area.
Generally speaking stag hunting in France takes place from 15th September to 15th October, however there are local variations in the hunting season which means that stag hunting in the Dordogne fis from 18th September to 5th October and in the Pyrenees from 1st – 15th October.
