Free-range Red Stag Hunting

Set in the spectacular Foyel Valley of northern Patagonia, Southland offers a remarkable diversity of landscapes, from gently rolling hills and wide-open grasslands to rugged mountain slopes, deep valleys, and native forests framed by the Andes.

Red Stag Habitat

Spanning over 123,000 acres of pristine wilderness, this extraordinary terrain provides the perfect habitat for free-ranging red stag. Most hunts take place across the hillsides, valleys, and river corridors, where hunters navigate the natural landscape in pursuit of mature trophies.

During the rut, the powerful roar of red stag echoes across the valleys, adding an unforgettable dimension to every day in the field.
