Hunting in Marlborough

Tussock tops looking down over the Marlborough Sounds

Marlborough spans remarkable variety, from the sheltered Sounds to the vast tussock country of Molesworth, New Zealand's largest recreation reserve, where red deer and chamois are hunted through a block-booking system run by the Department of Conservation. The Wairau Valley and its tributary rivers hold reds and chamois in more classic river-valley country, while fallow deer feature across the region's private ground. The autumn roar is the standout window, and Molesworth's booking system, seasonal road access, and serious cold are exactly the kind of logistics a guided operator handles for you.
