Hunting tours

KOLYMA-TRAVEL invites you to take part in a trophy animal hunting in the vast expanses of the Magadan region. For two weeks you could turn into one of the earliest explorers, miles away from civilization. Along with the trophy hunting, you will have the opportunity to hunt for migrating birds and try fishing in the Sea of Okhotsk and clear rivers of Magadan.

Unique hunting experience

Kolyma-Travel offers you a true wild hunting experience in taiga - boreal forests of Northern Russia. We do not do hunting over bait or any other interference into nature, no fences, no watch towers - it is just you, face to face with the wild! The bigger is the joy and satisfaction from such a hunt.
