GENERAL
INFORMATION
When considering
dove hunting in Argentina, there’s “good” and then there is Sierra
Brava. Dove hunting at Sierra Brava is in a world-class league of
its own. From the beginning Sierra Brava had access to the best
fields in Cordoba due to personal relationships with local farmers.
For this reason the lodge was strategically located only 15 minutes
from the heart of Argentina’s most desirable hunting region – the
Macha roost. This allows for short drives and access to fields where
high volume dove records are set. In 2010 Todd White from Dallas,
TX broke the Sierra Brava record of over 11,000 birds shot in one
day.
Even though clients are blown away by the quantity and quality of
the shooting, the thing that separates Sierra Brava apart is its
legendary service. Clients feel right at home at Sierra Brava. The
atmosphere around the lodge is very relaxed and fun. The bird boys
are the fastest loaders around and are always up for a good laugh.
The staff strives to make every Sierra Brava dove hunt a trip of
a lifetime even though clients usually return year after year. Finally
the food and wine at the lodge are first class. Sierra Brava offers
mouth-watering steaks, both in the field and in the lodge and serves
the finest Argentine wines. It’s what legendary hunting trips are
made of.

ACCOMMODATIONS
The 7-bedroom lodge was built knowing that many demanding clients
would be attracted to the world class shooting. The accommodations
are luxurious yet still maintain the feel of a hunting lodge. The
rooms are very spacious and each has its own private bathroom. A
beautiful pool was built since clients spend more time around the
lodge and less on van rides. Finally a great fire pit was placed
behind the lodge where clients recount the day’s events.

are numerous international and domestic flights, arriving and departing
the nearby Córdoba’s Pajas Blancas International Airport from all
other major airports in Argentina. Although there is no nonstop
flight service from the U.S, connections in Santiago, Chile and
Buenos Aires will generally put you in the fields by 2:00 PM on
