Hunting in Colonia, Uruguay


Sports Business Directory - BTS Local




Colonia, Uruguay is the oldest city in Uruguay and a quaint town with original cobblestone paved streets and shops that are full of handmade leather goods. Colonia is easy to get to by a large fast ferry that takes only 50 minutes from Buenos Aires. The hunting is phenomenal in Colonia. You will not see a lot about the awesome bird hunting in Colonia. Most sites and outfitters highlight the Uruguay duck hunting and dove hunting in the northwest part of Uruguay as well as the northeast part of Uruguay.

Colonia is located just across from Buenos Aires and about 2 hours north of Montevideo. The dove hunting is available year round and is high volume. Thousands of doves fill the sky and the roosts are concentrated in Colonia. Colonia also offers Uruguay Perdiz hunting and duck hunting. Uruguay Perdiz hunting and Uruguay duck hunting is available May to August 1st and in combination with the high volume dove hunting, provides a fabulous mixed bag hunting trip in Uruguay.

Almost time for some Duck Hunting in Uruguay

April 27, 2009

One week before the beginning of the Uruguay and Argentina duck hunting season.  Los Gauchos is geared up and ready for another good season.  While the economy continues to leave us all unsure, one thing is for sure.  Duck hunting is good in Uruguay and Argentina.  Travel to South America could not be better with airfares dropping and the dollar strong in Buenos Aires and Uruguay.  

Los Gauchos newest destination in Colonia looks to be a popular one.  Flying to Buenos Aires, enjoying a great steak dinner with outstanding malbac or wine from the Mendoza area and then taking the fast ferry (50 mins) to Colonia, Uruguay for high volume dove hunting and Perdiz hunting.  For those that question "hunting"--remember doves are in such high numbers in Colonia and the doves are damaging to the fields and crops in Uruguay.  Enjoy Colonia with its European style and cobblestone paved streets in addition to the high volume dove hunting and upland Perdiz hunting.

Los Gauchos has a lot of new things in the works and we look forward to keeping you up to date about fishing and hunting in South America (and Mexico and Bolivia).

Happy Birthday to the Los Gauchos Gal in Houston---
