HIDES > MACIN DRINKING HIDE (ROMANIA)

Location and installation year:
This hide is located in the Macin National Park in a generally dry landscape. It was installed in October 2011. We have a drinking pool in front of the hide.

Access:
It is about 300 meter gentle walk to the hide.

Size and style:
It is 180 cm wide, 250 cm long and 140 cm high. It has 230 cm by 45 cm photo-through windows. It is comforatble for three photographers.

Comfort and accessories:
- Three chairs with back support
- Shelf
- Ventilators against the steaming up of the glass window

Regulation:
This hide can be entered any time of the day.

Recommended Photo Equipment:
The distance to the end of the drinking pool where most birds appear is 5.5 meter from the hide. All sort of lenses recommended but a 300 mm is the best. Also take a 500mm if possible, especially for small birds. Occasionally some species perch closer to the hide so a zoom lens can be useful too.
