Hunting in New Zealand
Best hunting adventures with Iberhunting
Embark on an unforgettable New Zealand hunt with IberHunting. Despite being at the antipodes of Europe, this captivating destination is well worth the journey. Its abundant natural landscapes, including lush forests, stunning glaciers, serene lakes, pristine beaches, and arid volcanic areas, make New Zealand a hunter’s paradise.
This country is divided into two major islands, the North Island and the South Island, separated by the Cook Strait. Our destination this time will be the South Island, known to the Maori as Te wai pounamu (the greenstone waters) or Te Waka or Aoraki (Aoraki’s canoe).
New Zealand largest Red stag
These impressive landscapes are home to a diverse array of big game species, offering high-quality trophies for your New Zealand hunt. Species include Red Deer, Fallow Deer, Arapawa Sheep, Himalayan Tahr, and Chamois.
The Red Deer can be hunted throughout the season, with the rut occurring from mid-March to mid-April, providing prime opportunities for your New Zealand hunt.
New Zealand Tahr hunting
Tahr and chamois can be hunted at the same time as Red deer, being in their heat, May, June, and July, when they have the best winter fur.
The hunting season begins in mid-February, which corresponds to the end of summer in New Zealand, and ends in July when its winter ends.
The extensive hunting area is a private concession that also has nearby rivers and tributaries where you can fish for salmon and trout, a complement for lovers of fishing. We also offer different excursions for accompanying persons ranging from hiking and mountain biking routes to tourist visits to local towns and large cities such as Queenstown or wine cellars.
The accommodation and hospitality are unique. A magnificent lodge located by Lake Hawea is a vacation paradise to experience the rural New Zealand lifestyle.
