HUNTING EXPERIENCE
AT THE SOURCE
“To experience and feel mountain hunting means to walk the
path that leads into trackless wilderness, to unravel secrets,
to witness overwhelming splendor. To feel fear and transience...
to practice renunciation. Mountain hunting conveys a touch
of freedom, is a deep love for a piece of home, and puts the
significance of humankind into proper perspective.”
ERNST RUDIGIER

In Austria, hunting is based on an
ancient tradition of Germanic origin.
One does not hunt for the sake of
shooting or for the meat. The philosophy
of hunting is centered on
seeking out the game, stalking,
correctly identifying it — and only
then on harvesting it.

A word of advice to hunters:
Respect local customs. A hunter,
even when carrying a rifle or their
game, is always welcome in Tyrol.

HIGH-ALPINE HUNTING
IN NIEDERTHAI
An exciting high-alpine hunting
experience along the main
ridge of the Alps. Gneiss and slate
shape the geology of this region,
with spruce being the dominant
tree species. In many areas, however,
the landscape is enriched by
larch trees, thriving stone pines,
and higher up, dense dwarf pine
zones.
Mountain fitness, physical endurance,
good health, and proper
equipment are essential. Forest
roads are scarce, and multi-hour
ascents and stalks beyond 2,000
meters altitude are standard.
Hunting takes place from the valley
floor at 1,100 m up to the glacier
region at over 3,000 m. You might
encounter a wide variety of wildlife
– from ducks to alpine ibex.
A unique and ecologically valuable
feature of this region is the
possibility to observe game across
ridge lines.
The stalk through forest and
alpine terrain is the primary hunting
method. However, sufficient
raised hides are available for
traditional hunting of red and roe
deer.
Game species available for hunting:
▶ Chamois
▶ Roe deer
▶ Red deer
▶ Black grouse
▶ Marmot
▶ Mountain hare and ptarmigan
