Hunting

in Australia

Australia is a wonderful hunting destination: a high level of service combined with a great number of wild and pristine areas. Many of the hunting species have been introduced here since the XVIII century by the European settlers. These include the traditional game as the deer, wild oxen (banteng and water buffalo), and invasive species, such as rabbit/hare and wild pigs.

ROUTE

The city of arrival is Darwin (Northern Territory) or Brisbane (Kingham). Two domestic flights will be required to get to the hunting area from Darwin, followed by a car transfer. The car transfer from Brisbane lasts for about 2 hours.

HUNTING

You will hunt by spot-and-stalk in Australia. Once a fresh track is found, the stalk begins. For example, buffalo stalking may take up to several hours. The hunters, experienced in hunting the African buffalo, are often surprised by the power and resistance strength of the Australian bull.
