In all the world, there is no place that can compare to Argentina for its variety and abundance of game birds. In the provinces of Corrientes in the north and Entre Rios in the east, huge populations of doves and pigeons plague farmers, and ducks of many species fill marshlands that stretch to the horizon. In the “big country” region of Buenos Aires Province to the south, geese, ducks, doves, pigeons and perdiz prosper in areas virtually undisturbed and unpopulated.
May through August (winter in Argentina) is the season for hunting mixed bag. The latitude is similar to central Texas, and as such, the climate offers nice winter weather, with lows in the 30s and 40s and highs in the 60s and 70s throughout the long season. Aside from the great shooting and pleasant weather, you will find Argentine hospitality to be both genuine and generous. Even in remote areas, dining is terrific and — as you can see from the photos — lodge accommodations range from very nice to opulent.
On our Argentina bird hunts, we prefer small parties of four to eight guns, in order to assure the best hunting and individual personal attention for our guests, and as always, we will carefully consider seasonal variations, your preferred species and your budget. These three programs are located in the most abundant of habitats, and have consistently proven to provide Argentina's highest standard in shooting, equipment, guides, lodging, food and drink, and, of course, caring and attentive personal service. Cerro de la Cruz / El RetiroSouthern Buenos Aires Province is the only region of Argentina with plentiful populations of all of Argentina’s game bird species — geese, ducks, doves, pigeons and perdiz. This unique program offers superb hunting for each of these species, all accessed from the charming Cerro de la Cruz, or it's sister lodge, El Retiro. El Rincon / Santa RosaThese lodges offer Argentina’s best combination of high-volume dove hunting, classic duck hunting for many species and excellent perdiz hunting over well-trained bird dogs. Both estancias are true country mansions. La PosadaCorrientes Province is a bountiful sub-tropical rice and grain producing region home to literally millions of ducks, along with Argentina’s greatest populations of perdiz and large numbers of spot-winged and picazuro pigeons. La Posada is a lovely country inn, built in the 1860s.
