Alaska-Yukon Moose
The Alaska-Yukon is the largest moose subspecies AND of any antlered game in the world!
ALASKA
Moose hunts in Alaska are great, but they’re expensive. On most hunts you have a decent chance at a bull around 55-65 inches, with some huge bulls pushing up to the 70 inch mark. Many of the best areas for an Alaska moose hunt are in draw areas, and in our opinion this is one of the best ways to hunt AK bulls. That’s if you are patient enough to wait till you draw (we can help you apply).
Alaska’s high costs are all about plane flights. It’s very expensive to get you remote, but even more, it’s expensive to get your moose back out. If you’re tough, and can get on the waiting list, check out our unguided moose hunt in Alaska.

european Moose
With their majestic size, impressive antlers, and elusive nature, the European moose subspecies has captured the fascination of hunters worldwide.
European moose are characterized by their dark brown fur, long legs, and a dewlap under the throat. However, the most striking feature of the European moose is its massive, palmate antlers that can span up to six feet in width. These antlers are shed and regrow annually, making them a prized trophy for hunters.
Distribution
These incredible creatures are primarily found in Northern and Eastern Europe, with countries like Sweden, Finland, Russia, and Norway being top moose hunting destinations. Their habitat typically consists of dense forests, wetlands, and meadows, which offer plenty of cover and sustenance for these majestic beasts.
Selecting the ideal location for your European moose hunt is crucial. Each country in Europe offers its unique hunting experience. Sweden, for instance, is known for its vast moose population, while Finland is renowned for its pristine wilderness. Norway offers a combination of challenging terrain and breathtaking landscapes. Your choice should depend on your preferences and the type of hunting experience you seek.
Moose hunting seasons vary from country to country, typically starting in late September and continuing through December. Make sure to check the specific regulations and dates for the area you plan to hunt in.
