Every year we organise events open to everyone – the hunters’ ball, St. Hubert masses and the Hunting Dog Day with demonstrations of working gundogs. It is a chance to see hunting up close.
For dog handlers we run hunting dog trials under the ČMMJ rules, spring shows, training days and seminars. You will find the dates of all events in the calendar.

We thank the partners who support the work of the Karlovy Vary District Hunting Association.
The Stop Mowing Fawns association, with which OMS Karlovy Vary has long worked to rescue fawns from being killed during hay mowing, handed the Minister of Agriculture a petition against the proposed amendment to the Hunting Act at the Země živitelka agricultural fair.
As hunters, we are glad that so many people in our country still care about the fate of wildlife. People who understand that game is not a pest but part of our natural heritage. We believe wildlife will remain a living part of the Czech landscape, not just a memory captured in photographs and films.
We regularly run courses for new hunting applicants, preparatory seminars and hunting exams, as well as hunting dog and shooting trials. We also keep hunting traditions alive with balls, trophy exhibitions and social gatherings. Education and culture go hand in hand with us.
The future of hunting lies with the young generation. We support young hunters’ activities and organise competitions, talks and educational programmes for schools. We teach children and young people to value nature, take responsibility for the environment and respect traditions.
Hunting is not just about the hunt – above all, it is a service to nature. We look after hedgerows, wildlife corridors, water sources and small game. We work with nature conservation authorities, municipalities and farmers on projects that improve biodiversity and the quality of the environment in our region.
Dozens of hunting clubs and associations operate in the district, and we work closely with all of them. We give them expert support and methodical guidance, share experience and coordinate the care of game and the landscape together. We are a partner to everyone who cares about sustainable hunting.
Our goal is balance between game, the landscape and people. We regularly monitor the health of wildlife and make sure feed and natural habitats are managed properly. We help prevent disease, keep records of harvested game and regulate game numbers responsibly, in line with the law and the ethics of hunting.
