Hunting in
New Zealand

When it comes to hunting, New Zealand’s majestic Southern Alps hold some of the finest Big Game Animals to be found anywhere in the world. Stravon offers fair chase hunting where both record book ‘Free Range’ & ‘Game Ranch’ trophies are regularly taken. In addition we personally arrange and guide safaris into the most remote yet beautiful corners of New Zealand. Note that we guide not only for rifle hunters, but bowhunters, muzzle loaders and photographers.

The main trophy hunting period is from March to September. The ‘Roar’ is in full swing and the stags with their impressive antlers are out chasing the hinds during March and April.

Stravon uses 4x4 vehicles, polaris rangers, jet boats to access prime hunting locations and stalking is carried out on foot.

Hunting in our South Island exposes you to magnificent scenery, from open rolling country, to the steep forested foothills that form the barrier between the plains and the spectacular snow-covered peaks and glaciers of the Southern Alps. 

Don’t forget your cameras.
