High Peak Game Estate includes some truly spectacular country.  

The property consists of 4,000 acres of prime hunting country. Native grasslands, forest-filled valleys and clear mountain streams provide the ideal habitat for New Zealand's wild animals.

Rising to over 3,000 feet in altitude with a 1500 foot vertical rise, High Peak is well serviced with four-wheel drive tracks.


The property includes a traditional hunting bush hut out near the furthest reaches of the game estate. The hut is equipped with hot water, a shower and separate quarters for the guides.

It's very similar to the type of lodgings that would have been utilized by the original deer hunters in New Zealand.

There's a huge stone fireplace, where you can enjoy a drink at the end of a good day's hunting.

Although you can get around the property via four-wheel drive, most hunting is accomplished on foot and thus a reasonable standard of fitness is required.

The majority of the game estate is surrounded by conservation land, set against the backdrop of the Big Ben and Torlesse ranges.

You'll experience a genuine sense of isolation and seclusion as well as a spectacular backdrop for your hunting photos.
