New Zealand Red Stag

Introduced in the 1850s, red stag have flourished in New Zealand and are now one of the most sought-after trophies in the world. Their size, antler mass, and the adrenaline-fueled “roar” make them a hunter’s dream.

We have multiple Free-Range and Estate Hunting Blocks in the Wanaka region, as well as a large Free Range Block near Roxburgh (approximately a 3 hour drive away)

Tahr Hunts 

Native to the Himalayas, these sure-footed mountain goats thrive in our Southern Alps. Tahr hunts are as much about the rugged adventure as they are the trophy itself—pure alpine hunting.

Our Tahr can be hunted from our Wanaka Base or as part of an Expedition hunt where we stay in a Wilderness Camp.

Chamois Hunts (Expedition)

Fast, alert, and elusive, chamois are a true test of a hunter’s patience and marksmanship. They’re the only introduced mountain antelope in the Southern Hemisphere.

Our Chamois Hunts require an Expedition style Wilderness Camp with drop off and pick up by helicopter. Chamois Expeditions are also a great opportunity to hunt Tahr.

Elk Hunts

Our Roosevelt elk bring a slice of North America to New Zealand. Big-bodied, intelligent, and majestic - these bulls add serious weight to any hunting story.

Our Elk Camp is approximately a three hour drive from Wanaka. We have basic accommodation on site with chef prepared meals.

Fallow Buck Hunts

Known for their broad palmated antlers and varied coat colours, fallow deer offer a classic and rewarding hunt in more accessible hill country.

We have Fallow Buck in both our Wanaka Estate Blocks as well as Free Range in Roxburgh
