Accommodation: Our newly purpose built accommodation offers an excellent combination of comfort and practical electronics (including wi-fi access) that today's professional photography dictates.
Level of fitness: Photographing lekking Grouse and Capercaillie involves arriving in your hide the evening before and awaiting their arrival at dawn for early morning photography. These hides will be a mixture of wooden and tent based so there will be an inevitable degree of discomfort and adventure, including a night on your own in the forest. With some walking to access the hides this is a tiring but rewarding trip.
LEVEL 4 to 5

Northern Lek
One of the most amazing sights and sounds of late spring is to be woken before dawn by the sound of a lekking Black Grouse or Capercaillie. This trip to well-established sites in Norway will give you a fantastic opportunity to experience and photograph at close quarters the dramatic poses, antics and displays of these amazing birds as they look to establish and undertake breeding rights for the season ahead. You’ll stay overnight in small, carefully prepared hides ready for the birds' early morning antics, and with daytime opportunities for Slavonian Grebes, Sea-Eagles and Red Squirrels, it's a jam-packed week and a real tonic for the start of the summer.
