HUNT & HIKE
– a BUFFALO in South Africa
In our unique camp in Kruger, South Africa, we invite you on a hunting trip out of the ordinary. Here its us – Trine and Rikke – who welcome you with passion, experience and deep local knowledge. We have hunted across continents, but this particular journey stands out as the most different of them all. Surrounded by an impressive landscape and abundant wildlife, we tailor your experience from start to finish – from first contact to departure at the airport.
Join us in the legendary Greater Kruger region where we offer uncompromising hunting at eye level with one of the continent’s most respected and fearsome adversaries – the iconic Hard Boss buffalo. With exclusive access to the Kruger National Park, we set up an authentic and minimalist camp in the middle of the wilderness, putting you close to the raw pulse of nature and where it all happens.

THE HUNT
Hunt & Hike gives you access to a unique and inaccessible part of the Kruger National Park. You’ll stay in a simple but comfortable tented camp in the middle of the national park – an area where very few are allowed to stay overnight. There are no luxuries, but everything you need: campfires, starry skies and the sounds of the game around you. The camp serves as a base for your hunt and places you in the middle of the African bush, close to nature and far from distractions.
Just a 15-minute drive from the camp is the hunting area where you hunt the Hard Boss buffalo – one of Africa’s most challenging opponents. The hunt is intense and takes place in dense bush, making both physical and mental demands. You’ll hunt one-on-one with our experienced Professional Guide (PH) who prioritizes safety, respect for the game and quality of the hunt.
It’s also possible to hunt buffalo within the boundaries of the Kruger National Park itself, for those who want the most exclusive and challenging experience.
SHARE THE EXPERIENCE
With us, it is possible to bring companions – it can be your partner, a family member or a friend. Companions can participate as observers and gain a unique insight into the hunt and life in the bush, or they can take an active part in parts of the trip, depending on wishes and agreement.
We, Rikke and Trine, are often present at the camp and occasionally participate in the hunt. This contributes to a personal and engaged atmosphere, where there is time for both exchange of experience and community around the values of hunting and the presence of nature.
HUNTING PERIODS
June – July
Hunting for Hard Boss buffalo takes place all year round, but the period from July to June (the South African winter) offers particularly good conditions. The vegetation is sparse, and there are fewer leaves on the trees and bushes, which makes it easier to spot and stalk the buffalo on foot in the dense bush. This provides a more efficient and visually intense hunting experience, where you really get close to the animal and the surroundings.
At the same time, it is a pleasant time to be in the bush around the clock. The temperature is lower, humidity is lower and the amount of insects is significantly reduced. There are also fewer snakes during this period, making the overall stay both safer and more comfortable. All in all, winter in Greater Kruger creates optimal conditions for both hunting and the experience of being present in the middle of the African wilderness.
The area
Our hunting grounds are located in the Greater Kruger region – one of Africa’s most iconic wildlife areas. Here we have private concessions ranging from 1,500 to 22,000 hectares, all located in Big Five zones where buffalo, elephant, lion, leopard and rhino occur naturally.
The area is created for hunting and offers the opportunity to combine classic, stalking hunting with authentic safari experiences – depending on your desire and level of experience. Here you get a raw and genuine hunting experience in one of South Africa’s most sought-after hunting destinations.
The journey there
Your journey begins in Johannesburg, where most international flights land. From here, you have two options for getting to the hunting area: you can take a shuttle bus or rent a car and drive yourself – the trip takes about 5-6 hours through varied South African countryside. Alternatively, you can opt for a domestic flight to Hoedspruit, which is about an hour’s drive from the camp.
Upon arrival in our area, your stay starts with an overnight stay in a comfortable and luxurious lodge. Here you’ll have the opportunity to land after your journey, enjoy good food and be pampered while you sort out your gear. We’ll also take a trip to the shooting range to make sure everything is as it should be before the hunt begins. The next day you’ll head out into the bush where you’ll stay in a tented camp for the duration of the hunt. You’ll be in the middle of the wilderness 24/7 and this is as close to nature as you’ll get. On the last day of the trip, we return to the lodge where you can enjoy a hot shower, celebrate your hunting experiences and round off in peaceful and comfortable surroundings.

LOGI
Our camp is something very special and differs significantly from the classic safari or hunting lodge. Here you live in the middle of the bush – without fences, without distance from nature and with a clear view of the savannah. It’s a simple but authentic tented camp, where animals can pass close by and where you really feel the presence of the wilderness around the clock.
Meals are cooked over a campfire and you’ll have the opportunity to taste the game you’ve hunted yourself, such as buffalo. The camp is equipped with showers and toilets in a simple but functional setting that suits the primitive and honest experience. It’s not luxury in the traditional sense, but it’s comfort enough to settle in and find peace – and that’s a big part of the experience.
We are present in the camp throughout your stay and make sure that everything works. You’ll have a present and genuine base where you get close to nature – both practically and mentally.

We have now been in Canada for almost a month, and the first weeks have been about much more than hunting. 🏔️
Rikke has been taking part in a biological study in the Rocky Mountains, collecting plant samples in areas where Stone Sheep are often found. Studies like these help us better understand and protect nature and wildlife. Meanwhile, Trine has been at basecamp, training horses and getting everything ready for the season.
Being a hunting guide in Canada is about much more than hunting — we grow, learn, and improve every time we are here. Now we’re looking forward to welcoming our first clients of the season. 🐻
Hope all is well back in Denmark!
We went snowshoeing today and found a matching pair. 🫎
Heading off to Canada preparing for another bear season next week. Can`t wait to welcome our hunting guests for some wilderness adventures. 🐻
Som mange af jer allerede har opdaget, er vi blevet valgt som værter på et naturprogram på DR. Tak til alle jer, der skriver og ringer – vi gør vores bedste for at nå jer alle de kommende dage.
Der er mange reaktioner, og det forstår vi godt. For os handler det om at gå ind i det med respekt, være os selv hele vejen og fortsat formidle jagten i øjenhøjde.
Samtidig vil vi sige det helt klart: Vores virksomhed og vores jagtgæster er og bliver kernen i det, vi laver. Vi fortsætter med at guide, holde foredrag og tage virksomheder med ud i naturen – både i Danmark og ude i verden.
Vi går ikke på kompromis med Hunt & Hike – vi er i bund og grund bare to jagtguider, der brænder for eventyr.
Tak for støtten 🧡

Our last group in Sweden included a familiar face—a former hunting guest and friend from our mountain goat trips in Canada. This time, he brought his twin sons along.
It really made it all come full circle guiding their father to success on mountain goat, and just a year and a half later guiding his two boys on fallow deer here in Sweden.
Hunting across generations means everything to us. Not just for the tradition, but because really the best moments are shared under open skies and around a fire. 🌕

Our hunting trips to Sweden are for anyone who wants the full experience. 🇸🇪
Whether you’re totally new to hunting, looking to learn new techniques or just get better at what you already do.
These guys came to learn—and to bring some meat home for their families.
We guided them through everything, from field dressing and skinning to how we plan and approach a stalk, so they could be part of the whole process.
Thanks for a great trip guys, safe Travels home 🌲
