We
hunt & fish near either
Mercedes,
or Colonia
Mercedes
Mercedes, Uruguay is a beautiful old
city with a population of 40,000 situated along the shore of the
Rio Negro in the North west part of Uruguay.
We reach our our hunt headquarters at Estancia Ninette ,after a 50 minute
charter flight from Montevideo and a 30 minute drive from
Mercedes.
Estancia Ninette very comfortably accommodates
8 - 16 persons and most hunts are less than 20 minutes drive away. Here,
depending on the time of year, we hunt all species. Fishing is
also close by in the river in front of the lodge or in small
streams nearby and is mostly "catch & release",
although we can keep a few for "the pot".
There is a excellent Golf course
at Fray Bentos about 40 minutes drive from Estancia Ninette and is
well worth a round for those whose other passion is golf.
Colonia
Colonia is a magnificent 17th century
city maintained as a historical monument by the Uruguayan
government. We reach our hunt headquarters near Colonia, after a
2 hour drive from Montevideo.
Here we stay at the Colonia Suiza
Inn, where fine meals, a swimming pool and friendly hospitality
await you after a day in the fields. Around Colonia, we hunt
mostly doves, with some pigeon shooting, with most drives less
than 30 minutes to the fields.
