Hunting types and areas:
During the hunt, each guest has an assistant who collects and counts the pigeons shot, who counts and collects the hunted ducks or takes care of the dogs during the partridge hunt. The drive from the lodge to the hunting grounds is about 10 to 20 minutes. From time to time, you literally just go outside the door.
Pigeons
Pigeons are one of the main reasons why hunters come for bird hunting in Argentina. On the site of Los Ombues there are about 20 million pigeons. This hunt is a challenge to all hunters; whether experienced or just starting hunting.
Pigeon hunting can be done all day long, but early morning hours and late evening hours are most fertile. Experienced hunters should expect 1500 to 2500 rounds of ammunition a day.
Partridge
For hunters who enjoy hunting variety, Los Ombues also offers classic partridge hunting. Here you will find the peacock, which belongs to the genus of partridges. The partridges live in the fields and in the grasslands of the lodge and are retrieved by well-trained dogs after firing.
Ducks
Duck hunting on Los Ombues is a real pleasure! A 10-minute boat ride takes you right into the dream area of every duck hunter. After an average hunting day, your hunting bag will be filled with a variety of duck species: spiny-tailed duck, bahama duck, cinnamon duck, andean duck, red-shouldered duck, versicolor duck, common piping duck, argentinian shoveler, autumn whistle-headed goose, widow whistle-goose and the widespread peposakaente. The number of ducks and the hunting quality are unsurpassable.
Accommodation:
Los Ombues Lodge, surrounded by vast fields and wetlands, is a magnificent 1100 m² brick building built in the typical Argentine country house style. The luxurious lodge has 9 spacious double rooms with bathroom; a dining room and a large living room with comfortable sofas and armchairs by the fireplace.
