Alpine Hunting Team
Since our humble beginning, Alpine Hunting has grown immensly. First of all into New Zealand's foremost professional hunting operation but most importantly into a 'family' of long term team members where everyone from our housekeeper to our pilots and guides who take pride in what we do without forgetting to have fun along the way.
Wapiti Bull (Elk) - Cervus Elgphus Nelson Wapiti were first introduced to New Zealand in 1909, when President Roosevelt gifted a herd of 20 animals that were released in on the South Island. Wapiti are the largest round horned deer in the world, often weighing up to 1000lbs and their bugle is during the same time as the red stag roar from Mid-March through Mid-April. Alpine Hunting has a small herd of Wapiti, and the best time to hunt them is between February and late April.
