What's new

Keep in mind in this area

Hunting black grouse during lek season is limited in the permit area. The hunting restriction applies only to the most significant lek areas. The Oksalan Isosuo mire area has been protected from hunting in the lek season. Black grouse hunting is prohibited in this area during the entire hunting season in the mornings between 5:00 and 10:00. However, hunting for other game is allowed. The restricted area is marked on the map of the permit area.

The small predator permit includes restrictions on keeping a dog off-leash.

Check the restrictions carefully in the permit terms and on the area map.

Separate dog training permits are not granted for the hunting area. 

Seasonal permits for small game (so-called seasonal grouse permits) are not issued for the hunting area.
