Standing in ambush for bears: group of 4 "hunters"
Price: 330€ / person (3 days)
           121€ / per day / person

Hunting with a pack extremely rewarding. However,if you hunt alone, it is sometimes more complicated to hunt with a pack. For example, hares often travel in company, and you may temporarily end up with a split pack and two different chases. Hounds that pack well and are used to hunting together soon realize that something is wrong and that the usual lead dogs are missing. They will likely abandon the second chase at the first check. If you hunt with a friend, you can send him after the second group to bring them back more quickly. Hunting with a pack is more complex than other types of hunting!

Season: depending on the hunted animals

Though once abundant over much of Romania, the gray wolf inhabits a small portion of its former range because of widespread destruction of its habitat, human encroachment of its habitat, and the resulting human-wolf encounters that sparked broad extirpation.

Transylvania has an increasing population of 2,500 wolves which are granted legal protection. Some wolves have successfully established themselves in Braşov.
