More than a consolation

Kaisertal billionaire snaps up the Benko hunt

After the hunting dispute in the Tyrolean Kaisertal, a delegation from Kufstein made a pilgrimage to billionaire Henkel - but he has already found a new "playground": that of record-breaking bankrupt René Benko in the Karwendel nature reserve.  

Mountains, meadows, forests and an abundance of wildlife: The Kufstein Kaisertal Hunt has everything a hunter's heart desires. This is one of the reasons why the billionaire Henkel family remained loyal to it for more than 70 (!) years. But now, in March, the lease agreement with the town of Kufstein for the 2,800-hectare area expires.
