San Cirilo Lodge Uruguay Perdiz Hunt Brochure (PDF)
This sporting Uruguay perdiz hunt provides fun challenge for even the veteran upland hunter. Hidden in and among the short-grass savannah and low-lying shrub of western Uruguay, the perdiz is a master of concealment and surprisingly speedy during the flush. This hunt is experienced over well-experienced English setters or Brittany spaniels. Guest can expect easy walking and continuous points throughout the morning. This Uruguay perdiz hunt provides guests respite from the high-volume dove hunts or decoyed pigeon hunts with which it is paired, and will test their upland wingshooting skills. Expect certain opportunity for perdiz limits, beautiful rolling hills, exceptional guides and pointers, and a respectable game bird.
Located on a secluded hilltop, Estancia San Cirilo overlooks Uruguay's Rio Negro delta, and the thousands of acres of sunflower, sorghum, and soybeans that define beautiful western Uruguay.
