THE HUNTING
Hunters depart the lodge with their guides well before dawn, to be positioned at glassing spots before day break. 4×4 trucks and horses are used to access hunting areas. The ranch has good roads so most of it is accessible by vehicle. To the most remote and steap areas we ususally access on horsesback.
All the hunting done in the ranch follows a strict management plan, only old mature Stags are harvested. Your guide will let you know which bull is shootable or not.
Drives vary depending on the selected hunting area, but range from 15 to 45 minutes. The guiding can be one-on-one or two-on-one depending on guest references.
In the evening we hunt till there is enough light to get out of the mountain safely.
On addition to the finest red stag hunting in South America, the ranch has a growing population of Water Buffalo and Fallow Deer every season some beautiful trophies are harvested. At the farm we also have Axis Deer, Blackbuck and pure wild European Boar available to hunt.
Dove hunt is available at the lodge as well.

Mornings start early, followed by a breakfast then a short ride will then put you in the designated hunting area before sunrise. You'll hunt usually until mid morning, returning to the lodge or camp for lunch and perhaps a siesta.
The evening hunt continues until a little bit before dark. We always quit hunting with enough light to return safely to the truck or trailhead.
