About us
Baryonyx was founded with one purpose: to offer authentic, world-class hunting and nature experiences in the most remote parts of Norway — for those who demand more than a tour. We work with the land, not around it. Our guides are professionals with decades of field experience. Our guests are leaders, doers, and thinkers who seek solitude, precision, and meaning. Each expedition is built on three principles: Discretion. Quality. Integrity. No crowds. No compromise. Just the pursuit — pure and personal.
Our mission
To preserve and elevate the Nordic hunting and wilderness tradition by offering rare, curated experiences built on respect:
For nature. For the craft. For our guests.
