“La Pampeana is one Argentina’s premier lodges. Having traveled extensively in South America and specifically Argentina for wingshooting, La Pampeana offers the most diverse wingshooting I have seen anywhere in the Americas.
During my stay we shot high volume doves, pigeons over decoys, perdiz over pointers, driven and walk-up giant perdiz and ducks over decoys. I found all aspects of the shooting world class.
In addition to the hunting, the restored estancia is comfortable and well appointed. Chef Javier prepares gourmet meals that can be compared to dining at a five star restaurant.
The staff was attentive and the equipment first class. I can recommend La Pampeana with full confidence.”

Estancia La Escondida – Ducks - What a great adventure! The whole staff was helpful, professional and tidy. While it was a full moon and unseasonably warm, we saw more ducks than we´ve ever seen in our lives! The hunting crew set up comfortable, well placed blinds and we shot the heck out of the ducks. The food was delicious! La Escondida was comfortable and nice. We hope to return some day 🙂 PS: We loved all the dogs too! Carla and Chris McNellis, Los Angeles - July 2023

Estancia La Escondida – Ducks - Just wanted to say thanks to both of you for all your help planning our trip. My son and I had a wonderful time in Argentina. We are fixing to board the airplane and head back to Dallas. We can’t thank you enough; these are some memories that will last a lifetime, and we’re looking very much forward to our next trip down to Santa Rosa and to see all the guys and do some more hunting and fishing.

- Give my best to Nico, Pancho, and Luis. We HAD a blast and are still reliving the experience in our memories and pictures. We couldn’t have asked for a more responsive, patient, friendly set of guides. They made the experience very enjoyable and one that we soon won’t forget. The hunting was superb. We hope to come back in the future.Ross Conner – Texas
- It was spectacular! The duck numbers were incredible and the dove numbers were great! Every single hunt was as good as it gets! Unbelievable service and great attitudes. Kike and the entire staff @ El Rincon are the best. Only El Rincon in Argentina!Mark Wheeler – KY
