Individually designed to be individually enjoyed -- this destination provides a truly custom sporting experience each day of the trip.
Uruguay Dove Hunting
Pure volume!
The dove hunting at Black River is comparable only to that of the Cordoba of the 1970's. Dove hunts are made close to the estancia, and guests of Black River have the luxury of shooting as many doves as they desire.
Uruguay Duck Hunting
Ducks that have never seen decoys!
Duck hunts are made in close proximity to Estancia San Cirilo over beautiful lagoons and pot holes. The volume of ducks can only be measured by the number of shells expended and our guests can expect close range, unpressured, decoying birds.
Uruguay Decoyed Pigeon Hunting
Pigeons that redefine decoying!
This challenging opportunity has quickly become a favorite among Black River guests, as it provides a unique opportunity to hunt a species with great speed and toughness. Hunts are made in close proximity to the Estancia, and the pigeon flight begins minutes after sun up.
Uruguay Perdiz Hunting - Over Pointing Dogs
A bird so sporty you may skip high volume!
The sporty Perdiz offers our guests a morning away from high volume and a leisurely upland bird hunt over English setters or Brittany spaniels. Guests of Black River can expect 25-50 flushes in a morning, well trained pointers, and a speedy, challenging upland bird.
Uruguay Golden Dorado Fishing
Catch! Release! Repeat!
A chance to get out of the field and onto the water, Black River's golden Dorado fishing has quickly become our most popular opportunity. Make a switch from high-volume shooting to heart pounding fishing, and hang a golden Dorado on light tackle.
Duck Hunting
Wing-shooting's New Frontier in Rocha, Uruguay
