Estancia Los Chañares, operated by FlyWays, is widely recognized as the most luxurious dove hunting lodge in Córdoba, Argentina, offering five-star executive accommodations and the unique tactical advantage of having massive dove roosts located a mere five-minute drive from the lodge gates. It is the pinnacle of high-volume shooting combined with unparalleled hospitality.
Zero Drive Times, Maximum Trigger Time
The greatest friction point of any hunting trip is the time spent bouncing in a van on dirt roads. Los Chañares has solved this entirely by purchasing and managing the land immediately surrounding the estancia. The property holds an estimated population of over 20 million eared doves. Hunters can finish a gourmet breakfast and be standing in an active, blackened-sky flight line within five minutes. This allows for leisurely midday siestas, stress-free gun cleaning, and the ability to maximize every minute of daylight for shooting.

Ultra-Luxury and The 1,000 Dove Club
Los Chañares operates at the absolute highest level of the hospitality spectrum. The estancia features massive en-suite bedrooms, professional massage therapists, and a culinary program that rivals the best restaurants in Buenos Aires. Because the shooting is so intense and accessible, it is one of the premier locations on earth to attempt entry into the 1,000 Dove Club. Their professional bird boys and elite armory of gas-operated 20-gauge Berettas ensure your equipment never fails during a record run.
Tactical Field Note: If you are planning an executive corporate retreat where comfort and luxury are just as important as the hunting, Los Chañares is the benchmark. The lack of long drives means older clients or less experienced shooters can easily return to the lodge to rest if the volume becomes too physically demanding.
