Welsh_red 4,298 Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 My girlfriends mum has had a place in spain for 6 or 7 years but has sold up and moved back here . She is going out with a london bloke who has a house in the same town as her old place . Me and my girlfriend have never met the man before so sometime next year us and the kids are off over to his place for a weeks holiday with my future mother in law and her new boyfriend . Needless to say apart from the sun im not bouncing happy about it , a week with the mother in law isnt top on my holiday list but my girlfriend wants it and we havnt been abroad for 7 years so it will be nice for the kids . Anyway , i have zero idea how hunting abroad works etc . As ive said in previous posts im not a seasoned huntsmen in the mould of most on here , its basically been me and my rifle for the last 10 years hunting on my own so i dont have a large circle of hunting mates to get info from . As my girlfriend knows all to well im not up for this holiday and that to keep me on side and in a pleasent mood for the whole week she will have to give a little , i fancy cashing my brownie point chips in and trying to get a few nights walking around the country side hunting . Is there anybody on here that knows anything about hunting in spain . The little village is called Hondon De Los Frailes in the province of alicante . Its out in the wilds . As far as getting a rifle over there i think it shouldnt be a problem . When my mother in law lived there before with her old husband he was advised by the spanish locals to buy a rifle incase of bandits coming over to steal their figs (sounds a bit medievil i know but thats what i was told) . If i had time in advance to plan it i could ask the new boyfriend if he had a rifle or could get his hands on one . Tbh i just fancy a wander around the countryside and shoot a few rabbits if possible . Is their anybody on this site from spain i could pick their brains Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 12,352 Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 What region?? All have different rules but in all regions you have to register for a hunting licence and a gun license (not a big issue if you have one in blighty). Then there's the areas set aside for hunting and then there's the private areas set aside lol it can get complicated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Welsh_red 4,298 Posted October 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Its a small place called hondon de los frailles in alicante. Its incredibly remote. Ive had a look online at some hunting packages and their quite expensive. Will look into the licences needed soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 12,352 Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Alicante is way down south not sure of their rules. Google "hunting rules in Murcia" As for paying an outfit, unless you know people that is your best option Quote Link to post Share on other sites
