Argentina dove hunting
Dove hunting in Argentina (Córdoba)
Argentina dove hunting takes place in the central
region. This hunting travel must be experienced rather
than explained.
Where we hunt:
All our dove shooting fields, located 80 kms. East
of the capital of Cordoba (Argentina), provide one
of the best dove hunting areas in the world. The dry
climate and abundance of foods produces tremendous
bird populations. The flight of the doves back and
forth between the fields is virtually non-stop and
provides challenging sport. The terrain consist of
plains mixed with patches of woods, providing ideal
roosting areas next to food-rich fields of wheat,
sorghum, corn, peanuts and other crops. Over 1,000
shells per day is the norm.
Lodging facilities:
Guests enjoy very much our beautiful and picturesque
hunting lodge. The main house where hunters stay was
built in 1850, and it is a place that deserves to
be known. Each of the 7 double bedrooms has its own
private bathroom, and guests can enjoy the quiet fire
that burns every evening in the dining room´s
fireplace.
Outside, the beautiful gardens invite guests to take
a walk amisdt the beautiful flower plants and the
singing of birds.
Argentina dove hunting: Typiycal dove hunting day in the lodge:
Following an early American breakfast, hunters are
transported to the dove hunting fields, located approximately
20 minutes from the lodge. Each hunter is assigned
a birdboy who carries the shells, picks up the birds
and caters him in every need.
A full lunch, with an Argentinian barbecue and the
finest wines, is served in the field. After a short
rest, it's time to go shooting again for the rest
of the afternoon.
At the end of the day, our guests are welcomed back
to the lodge with drinks, followed by dinner.
Other Activities
Cordoba is a province with a lot of history. Guests
can visit the city and take a special tour to know
the National University, the oldest university in
South America. The missions founded by Jesuits in
the late 1600s are also very interesting to visit.
The old Jesuit "estancias" have been recently
included in the list of World Heritage by UNESCO.
Cordoba´s hills and the small towns located
near the mountains are other attractions for tourists.
The town of Villa General Belgrano, in particular,
is a very beautiful destination if you are visiting
Cordoba.. This town has an exquisite European flavour
since it was presicely them, Europeans from Germany,
Switzerland and Italy who first settled in the area
and originated this European village in the heart
of Argentina.
