Trek International Safaris invites you on a thrilling wingshooting adventure in Chaco, Paraguay—home of endless peanut fields and relentless decoying pigeon shooting. Hosted by Trek’s renowned, longtime outfitter partner Eric Von Sneidern, this trip offers extreme volume, high-octane pigeon shooting and access to exclusive hunting grounds during the peak of the peanut harvest.
This program offers extremely generous daily bag limits and thrilling hunts managed by some of the most experienced and knowledgeable field personnel running pigeon programs today. Hunts take place at the height of the peanut harvest when pigeons swarm the fields in staggering numbers.
Eric Von Sneidern brings years of proven success and seamless logistics to every trip. Whether you’re a seasoned wingshooter or chasing your next unforgettable experience, Paraguay delivers on a grand scale.
The Trip
Day 1: Arrival via international flight to Asuncion, Paraguay. Upon arrival, you will be met by our local agents and transferred to a charter flight to the Neualand hunt area.
After checking into the hotel, you will have lunch and hunt pigeons this afternoon.
Days 2-4: Morning and afternoon hunts for extremely high-volume decoying pigeons. Between shoots, you’ll enjoy a decadent field lunch and some refreshing hammock time. When the afternoon shoot is over, we you’ll return to the hotel for some down time before dinner. Meals are served family-style, with steaks, chicken, pork, fresh salads and desserts.
Day 5: On the last day, we will hunt the morning only and return to the hotel in time for lunch and to get packed up. After we have lunch, we’ll take the charter back to Asuncion where our rep will again meet you and help you check in for your flight home.
The Experience
Throughout this adventure, you’ll hunt both the Columbus Picazuros and the smaller blue-gray spotted pigeons. The pigeons in the region are considered a pest and the locals welcome our hunters. The pigeons have been known to destroy an entire 70-100 acre field in one day.
A typical day begins early with breakfast at the lodge before heading to the fields. Shoots take place over expertly set decoy spreads, including electronic “pigeon magnets,” withbird boys handling blind setup, decoying and retrieving.
Lunch is often enjoyed outdoors in traditional Paraguayan style with a relaxed field Asado—grilled meats, sides, desserts, and cold drinks—before returning for an afternoon shoot.
After hunting, return to the lodge for cocktails, hot showers, and a refined dinner featuring locally sourced cuisine paired with exceptional South American wines.
