October the 21, I am going Alpine Chamois hunting, my first.
Will fly to Ljubljana and be picked up by the guide.
But, I have some time in the city, any good hunting store to visit? Will stay a night and have a day to look around in the city before going home.
Interesting to se if I can find some traditional hunting clothes, loden.

Fanzoj from Ferlach has a Showroom in Ljubljana http://www.fanzoj.com/de/showrooms/index.html . But Ferlach the famous Gunmaker Town in Austria is only 70km away. Following prominent Riflemakers have Workshops there : Hauptmann, Hambrusch, Hausmann, Scheiring, Fanzoj, Hofer, Glanznig, Just etc.

Oh...Sounds dangerous....and fun
Maybe I need one more day.....
Thanks for the tip.

You will not regreet to stay longer

Norway Moose Hunter - mboga biga bwana (for sake guys please get shorter nick(ers) ) is right. Things are really just around the corner here - Austria, Italy included. Mind you Fanzoj shop in Ljubljana has some weird working hours tho - however if needed be they can come forward - if you need help just ask...then there are others.

BTW - where and who with exactly are you hunting?

While end of October marks the beginning of the height of the hunting season I will be around and if it comes handy and if you happen to have some time to spare I wouldn't mind you buying me a pint...I'd buy you one back of course

This gorgeous destination just came up on my radar, as my cousin will be grilled by the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee on July 15 as the nominee to be the U.S. Ambassador to Slovenia. Boy, I'd love to go visit!

BTW
Slovenia has great Chamois hunting Areas

Hello Mouse93, thanks. Yes, got your point regarding nickers...
Thank you for the information regarding Fanzoj. Will give them a call.

I have booked my hunting trip with Caracal.
Time I do got, so to meet over a pint will be a pleasure

mboga biga bwana, yes I have read and heard so. So, I am a looking forward to my trip

not too late but i remembered a very nice hunting store with all the traditions.

it was in Maribor not far from the river and what seems old buildings ...

Mouse may certainly chimes the right place there.

all the best.

Thanks for the reply, sounds interesting.

I was hunting in croatia this february for moufflon-ram. When I travelled through slovenia, I saw a lot of damage in the slovenian forests by snow!

I'm interested too, should be in Slovenia at some point this fall after Chamois!

Guys by all means you are all welcome to shoot me a PM when you will be around. I may help if needed and if time permits we can meet.

Since you are after Chamois - we had some threads regarding Chamois here in the past (some photos are missing but the essence is there):

Mouse93,
Thanks for the links. Oh, you sure have had some great hiking trips and a day or two with wooden legs....

Thank you for sharing.
Traditional trophy display in Slovenia, will that be scull on wooden plate as show in one of your photos?


Thanks.

Hunting Slovenia in Oct for chamois.

Also hunting Macedonia, Romania and Spain on the same trip.

Hello Scottyboy, when are you in Slovenia in October?

Hello

We arrive into Munich, Germany on Sept 30 and we're heading to the Oktoberfest for a day or two.
We're then driving to Slovenia and hunting the first week of October.

Oh, then you will have a good time.
I will be there a bit later. Wish you a good trip.
Hope to read how it did go
