Tour “Photo-Hunting for a Bear”
5 days/ 4 nights since May 20 till October 20

Photo hunting is one of the most fascinating activities invented by man. It has an excitement of the real  hunt, but it is bloodless and brings trophies not in the form of skins and stuffed animals, but in the form of rare photos, on which various animals are shot in interesting or amusing perspectives.

To go to the photo shoot, track down and watch the animal at a safe distance and return with wonderful pictures to the envy of all friends, this option, for sure, will seem attractive to many of us. It is necessary to have only a patience and a physical training!

Any photo-hunting is carried by accompany of an armed huntsman – a guide. However, as a rule, an animal is so cautious that only the experienced guide will be able to show it to you, lead you to the animal unnoticed for shooting.

Despite poor eyesight, the bear has a very developed sense of smell and hearing, so he feels and hears the person almost always first and tries to go away. A mother-bear is behaving in another way – it is better to go back.

A detailed briefing will be held before each departure to the mountains with tourists: how to behave when you meet a wild animal.
