Short introduction to Serbia hunting

Hunting grounds in Serbia cover around 96% of the country’s total area.

Apart from settlements, historical structure sites, industrial centers and transportation routes, hunting is allowed in almost all other parts of Serbia.

Hunting areas are established on the entire territory of Serbia in order to implement a unified hunting policy and appropriate measures for protection and nurturing.
