Blue Waters Travel delivers world-class red stag hunting throughout Central and Northern Patagonia. Both rifle and archery enthusiasts will appreciate inspiring landscapes, welcoming hospitality packages, the thrilling roar, and access to some of Argentina’s largest trophies. Cast and Blast participants can select red stag hunting as a standalone expedition, before or after an angling adventure, or as part of a combined experience at select estancias and properties. Prime hunts typically book a year ahead and some require full-week commitments dedicated to stalking and harvesting trophies. Day excursion options also exist allowing guests to enjoy complete cast and blast experiences combining stag, trout and quail within the same week.
Trophy red stag hunts on open terrain can be reserved at both Blue Waters South and Blue Waters North. These hunts typically span five to seven days and occur on private estancias or remote wilderness camps. A complete five days (two hunting sessions daily) usually proves necessary to locate, stalk and pursue the largest trophies-these should be considered dedicated hunting expeditions.
Dedicated trophy hunts at Blue Waters South occur on an exclusive mountain estancia near Esquel city and adjacent to Los Alerces National Park. No more than eight hunts annually are offered to ensure quality trophy management and guarantee all hunters opportunity to pursue world-class trophies. The program remains very comfortable, based from the owner’s cabin and completely managed by Blue Waters.
Hunters access over 50,000 acres of ideal red stag habitat including five creek drainages forming the Rio Percy. The territory holds some of Argentina’s finest trophy red stag. Programs may be reserved for 5 nights/5 days hunting, 6 nights/6 days hunting or 7 nights/7 days hunting. The trophy red stag program at Blue Waters South is all-inclusive covering one trophy red stag, estancia access fees, hunting permits, individual guides, all meals and beverages and .300 win mag rifle with ammunition. Hunters remain responsible for all shipping, handling and export documentation of their trophies. Contact us for additional information and price quotes.
Day excursions can be arranged for hunters wanting to pursue red stag without dedicating full weeks to the program. From Blue Waters Lodge at Trevelin, guests access and hunt Estancia Escondida, a 10,000-acre private property offering abundant red stag and ideal terrain just 20 minutes from the lodge. Guests can be hunting within 30 minutes and typically harvest trophy red stag in just a couple days, allowing them to complete their trip enjoying fly fishing and quail hunting.

Five-night trophy hunts can be arranged on the 10,000-acre Estancia Escondida in the Esquel territory at reasonable rates. The Escondida ranks among Argentina’s finest red stag properties, featuring high Andes, river valley and steppe terrain. Conveniently positioned twenty minutes from Esquel airport, the lodge offers private rooms with individual bathrooms. Prime roaring grounds sit near the lodge, minimizing driving time.
Although high-fenced, the property is massive and completely wild—impossible to hunt entirely in one week. Hunters experience exceptional roaring action with multiple stalks per session. Ideal for bow or rifle hunting, guests can harvest more than one trophy at this registered hunting property. Perfect for groups of four, budget-conscious hunters, those wanting maximum roaring action, or those preferring less physically demanding terrain. Contact us for additional information.
