From March till the end of May the ranch is permitted to work as a hunting lodge. The species we hunt are Red Deer and wild Boar. The ranch does not have high fences, which means the animals are not in captivity. The rutting season for the stags is from March 15th to April 5th approx, making hunting and finding the animal easier because you can hear it roar. Being in the transition zone between the wooded hills and the Patagonian steppe
The ranch has 2 diferent areas and ways of hunting.
1) Hunting on the steppe with little vegetation makes it difficult to get near to the animal, but you can also see the deer coming down, shifting his females, fighting another male. The shooting distance can vary between 100 and 200 mts.
2) Hunting in the woods one is much nearer to the animal, but that gives the animal a better chance to scent the presence of humans. The shooting distance is generally less than 100 mts.
