We travel together from Gothenburg by minibus and ferry to Poland - a comfortable trip where you can bring both trophies and meat home directly. For those who wish, there is also the opportunity to drive down yourself. Once there, three packed hunting days await, where you hunt at dawn and dusk and in between enjoy good food, rest and fellowship.
Day 1: Departure for the Polish forests!
Our journey starts in Sweden, where we gather with the whole hunting party to load all the luggage into the cars. Then we take the ferry from Sweden to Poland. Once in Poland, we drive the last few hours to the accommodation, where the adventure really begins.
We arrive at the accommodation in the evening and check into our rooms. Here you will have time to unpack, freshen up and unwind after the trip. The evening begins with a welcome drink where we go through the week's organization and what awaits during the hunting days. Then a lovely welcome dinner is served to set the mood for the week.
Days 2-4: The start of the hunting days
Early in the morning after breakfast we are picked up by our experienced hunting guides for the first hunt of the day. The morning hunt we have been looking forward to! When the game moves the most and the chances of good positions are great.
During the day there is time to return to our accommodation for rest, a hearty lunch and the opportunity to go through equipment or plan for the evening's hunt. Afterwards, we gather around a hearty dinner and share the highlights of the day in good company.
Day 5: We say thank you for this magical hunting adventure.
After a nice closing dinner and a good night's sleep, we start the day with a hearty breakfast and then check out and leave the accommodation to head for the ferry that will take us back to Sweden.
During your hunting days, you will stay at Bzy i Magnolie, a charming family-run accommodation located in the heart of Poland's beautiful countryside.
It offers comfortable rooms with a rustic and homely atmosphere, perfect for relaxing after a day's hunting. The accommodation is known for its hospitable service and genuine, home-cooked Polish meals, creating a warm and welcoming environment. Its proximity to the hunting grounds makes it an ideal base for a memorable hunting trip.
The Borne Sulinowo forest district in north-western Poland is a wildlife landscape characterized by deep forests, marshes and silence - a place where hunting still feels real. Wild boar, red and fallow deer, roe deer, mink and wolf roam the varied and wild terrain.
The land is suitable for both driven hunts with powerful drives and pressure, and for stealth and vigil hunts where the silence of the forest sets the tone. The combination of a rich game population, challenging biotopes and a piece of military history makes Borne Sulinowo a land with soul.
This is hunting for real - in an environment that carries both weight and tradition.

Daniel DaSilva accompanied us to Poland in the fall of 2020 for a red deer hunt on one of our most beautiful lands.
In the hunting film he recorded, you get to follow through quiet dawns, exciting stealth hunts and the intense atmosphere that only real red deer rut can offer.
Spoiler: The hunt ended with Daniel bagging a magnificent stag with a trophy weight of 6.56 kg - an experience that left a lasting impression.
We quote from the customer: Early in the morning we got out of the car and into the quiet, foggy Polish forest. The air was cold and fresh, and we heard the muffled roar of a stag from further away. My guide, Andrzej, silenced me with a wave of his hand. It was a moment of stillness, where the rhythm of nature and the hunt merged.
We crept through the dense forest, and soon we saw him - an impressive six-pointer. Andrzej knew exactly where we should be. When the deer stepped out into a clearing and the morning sun glistened on his shiny coat, there was no hesitation. One shot later, he lay still, and I felt a sense of awe that only such a hunt can bring.
Booking a hunting trip is often a long-awaited experience - and with the right preparation, it will be smooth, safe and memorable. Here are some key tips and advice to help you get the most out of your trip:
Choose the right hunt for you
Whether you are an experienced hunter or traveling for the first time, we will help you find the right trip based on your goals, experience and hunting style. Do you want to experience the thrill of a Monteria in Spain, a stealth hunt in Hungary or perhaps a wake hunt for wild boar? We will guide you in the right direction.
Be flexible - Hunting is Hunting
Hunting is always on nature's terms. The weather, the movement of the game and other circumstances can affect the outcome. Although the hunt is the goal, it is often the experience itself - the nature, the camaraderie and the thrill - that becomes the strongest memory.
We're with you all the way
When you book with Waidmann, you get access to a dedicated team with extensive experience in hunting travel. We're on hand before, during and after your trip - whether you need help with trip selection, documentation, gun logistics or something unexpected along the way.
Before your departure
Once you have booked your dream hunting trip with us, you will receive a booking confirmation by email. After that, we will ask you for some additional information, depending on your destination and type of hunting. Your trip will be saved in your Booking Portal where you can manage payments and find additional information for your trip.
For travel outside Europe, we send you two departure letters: the first one about two months before departure and the second one with all the final information, about 40 days before departure, in connection with the final payment. For travel within Europe, we send you a single departure letter around 40 days before departure.
In these departure letters you will find everything you need for your trip, from packing lists and clothing recommendations to tips, offers and information on additional pre-departure details. You will receive your flight tickets around 14 days before departure.
During your departure
During your hunting trip, it is good to keep track of any trapping fees. These are available both here on the website and in your booking portal. We are available on WhatsApp in the group we create a few days before departure, throughout your trip to help if needed or answer questions.
Tip. We really appreciate it when you share pictures and stories from your experiences.
After your departure
Once you are back home, full of impressions and memories of the hunt, trap fees may apply. These will be sent to you within 24 hours of your return and need to be paid immediately.
If you have chosen to bring trophies home, you will be contacted by our trophy management contact, who will inform you about the process, costs and next steps. Please note that depending on the country, it can take up to 2 years before your trophies are fully assembled and at your home. We always follow up and make sure you feel safe all the way, even after the journey is over.
Booking a hunting trip with Waidmann means security, quality and passion. We are one of Sweden's leading organizers of exclusive hunting trips and offer tailor-made experiences where every detail is carefully planned. With our personalized service, experienced guides and close partnerships with carefully selected hunting areas in Europe and Africa, we ensure that you get a hunting trip that exceeds your expectations - whether it's your first trip or your tenth.
With us, you're not just hunting - you're experiencing something bigger.
After the hunt, we ensure that your trophy is handled professionally and according to all applicable rules. Our local partners are responsible for the initial handling - often boiling and preparing for transportation. If you choose a more advanced mount, such as a bow mount, this is often carried out directly on site by local taxidermists. After that, export documents, veterinary certificates and customs documents are handled in cooperation with our experienced freight forwarders.
Waidmann offers help with the entire process - from on-site handling to transportation home. We are there to support you every step of the way and are happy to provide advice on installation and the choice of conservator. At the same time, you as a customer have full freedom to choose to manage the process on your own if you prefer.
The delivery time for trophies varies depending on the country of hunting and the type of trophy, but we will keep you updated throughout the process.
Going on a hunting trip means new experiences and memories for life. Unfortunately, it's not possible to control everything that happens, and sometimes unexpected things happen that can cause problems. So it's good to be insured both before and during your trip.
Often the travel protection included in home insurance and credit cards does not cover everything you need or want.
To make you feel as safe as possible when traveling with us, we have chosen to cooperate with Europeiska ERV, which has over 100 years in the industry. Together with Europeiska ERV, we offer their Travel Insurance Plus and Cancellation Protection. If you want to know more or want to take out an insurance, please contact us and we will help you with this.
The rules for using silencers vary from country to country. In Sweden and many other European countries, silencers are allowed and often recommended for hunting. However, in some countries, such as Spain, Poland, Serbia and Croatia, they are prohibited.
When you book a trip with Waidmann, you will always be given clear information about what applies in the hunting country in question.
Traveling with hunting weapons is possible, but it requires proper documentation and planning. Exactly what is needed depends on the country you are traveling to, but in general the following applies:
European travel: For hunting trips within the EU, a European firearms pass is required, which you apply for at the Police. We recommend that you apply directly when booking, as the processing time can be several weeks. You also need to notify Swedish Customs that you are taking your firearm out of the country. In most cases, a special invitation or hunting license is also required from the country you are going to hunt in - we at Waidmann will make sure you get this in good time.
Read more on the Police website
Travel outside the EU: For example, for Africa or other continents, a temporary arms export via the Swedish Customs is usually required, as well as a hunting license, invitation and sometimes a temporary import license. Rules vary from country to country, but Waidmann ensures that everything is handled correctly from the start, so you avoid uncertainty and hassle upon entry.
Air transportation: Your weapon must be transported in an approved, lockable gun case or bag. Ammunition is packed separately according to the airline's security rules. Weapon transportation must be notified to the airline in advance - if Waidmann books your flight, we will handle this notification and the entire process for you.
Waidmann has extensive experience in hunting trips with weapons and is with you throughout the process. You will receive clear instructions and the right documentation in good time before departure. If you want to travel without your own weapon, it is often possible to rent weapons on site, depending on the destination.
You can definitely book as a solo hunter with Waidmann! We offer both planned trips for single hunters, as well as small and large groups.
We welcome all hunters, whether you are alone or traveling with a group. Many of our hunters find that a hunting trip is a great opportunity to make new friends in hunting. Several of our 'bonded' groups have continued to hunt together years after their first hunting trip with Waidmann.
For those looking for a more personalized experience, we tailor hunting trips for both individual hunters and smaller groups. We also arrange trips for larger groups, where we adapt the experience to the specific needs and wishes of the group. In addition, we have the opportunity to combine several smaller groups to create a common hunting experience, which provides both variety and community.
Whether you are traveling alone or with a group, you can be sure that at Waidmann we will customize your trip to give you the best possible experience.
Booking a hunting trip with Waidmann is easy and we offer several convenient payment options. Here are the steps for booking and payment:
Booking and booking portal: Once you have booked your hunting trip, you will have access to your personal booking portal. In the booking portal, you pay a booking fee of 30% of the total amount of the trip, which must be paid within 10 days for the booking to be confirmed.
In the booking portal, you manage your entire trip - you fill in your contact details, make payments and receive ongoing updates and all important information before departure. Everything in one place.
Flight booking: If Waidmann books the flight for you, the flight cost is paid in full as a second payment at the time of booking the flight.
Final payment: The remaining amount is paid closer to departure, and the final payment must be made at least 40 days before departure.
Trap fees, if any: If there are trap fees, these are payable 24 hours after returning from the trip.
Payment: You can easily pay by card, Trustly, Swish or invoice. If you would like an invoice, please contact us and we will arrange it for you.
Cancellation: In case of cancellation, the following cancellation fees apply:
30% of the price of the trip between the time of booking and 40 days before departure.
100% of the price of the trip between 39 days before departure and the day of departure itself.
Flights: If the flight is booked by Waidmann and you cancel the trip, the flight price is paid at 100%.
We recommend that you take out cancellation insurance, especially for exclusive or long-distance trips, to protect yourself against unforeseen events. We offer cancellation cover through ERV.
For questions about payment, booking or cancellation, you are always welcome to contact us. We are here to help you through the whole process.
We recommend that you book your hunting trip at least 6-18 months in advance, especially if you have specific preferences for the type of hunt, destination or timing. Some trips, such as those to popular destinations in high season or with a limited number of places, book up quickly.
However, it is often no problem to book at short notice, as long as there is availability. We have good experience of helping hunters out at short notice when the opportunity exists.
For exclusive or tailor-made hunting trips, as well as trips outside Europe that require more extensive documentation and planning, it is a clear advantage to be in the know well in advance. It gives us a better chance of securing the best hunting grounds, accommodation and flight connections - and you'll have plenty of time to arrange permits, gun exports and other preparations at your leisure.
Absolutely, many of our guests are making their very first hunting trip abroad with us. We have a lot of experience in looking after first-timers and making sure you feel safe throughout the process.
We help you with everything from choosing the right type of hunt and destination to preparation, documentation and equipment. During the trip, you will always have access to experienced guides and organizers who will support you both practically and mentally in the hunt.
For those who do not have their own equipment or want to travel light, it is usually possible to rent weapons and other equipment on site. We also adapt the level of difficulty, organization and expectations to your level of experience.
Whether it's your first hunting trip or you've been out many times before, we'll make sure you have a personalized and professionally executed experience.
