Savor local-inspired gourmet meals and superb New Zealand wine and local beer in the main dining area. Relax in the living room and share stories about your successful day of hunting. Located in the Canterbury region of New Zealand approximately one hour’s drive from Christchurch, transportation from the airport to lodge included.

Hunt thousands of acres of prime New Zealand ranchlands and farmland for up to 12-species of Big Game animals. The most popular time of the year to hunt is mid-February through the end of April when temperatures are cooler.
