The diversity of climates and large areas of land provide the perfect habitat development for a large number of species. San Fernando Lodge Farm and Hunting Club is located in the East of San Luis province, an area merged between the semi-arid climate region known as `Cuyo´ and the temperate climate of Cordoba. As a result we can find flatlands with natural pastures and heavy woods filled with trees like Calden or Chañar.
Rates are flexible based on the number of hunters in the group, month of the season, and availability. Please do not hesitate to contact for an accurate quote and further info.
