Uruguay Wingshooting |
|
Uruguay is known as the 'Oriental Republic' because it stands on the eastern bank of the Rio de la Plata. Uruguay is an original “guarani” term and the best acceptable interpretation is “Painted birds River”. The Republic earned this name from the birds, and this symbolism is well known because of the ornithological richness of the country, the same most remarkable natural characteristic of South America, called “The bird’s continent”. It is the safest, most politically stable, and just plain friendly country in all of South America. |

Uruguay is one of the smallest of the South American republics, located between Argentina and Brazil. It is comparable in size to Oklahoma. The landscape is made up of hilly meadows broken by streams and rivers. There is a string of beaches along the coast. Most of the country is grazing land for sheep and cattle. About 90% of the land is suitable for agriculture, although only 12% is used in this way. Uruguay has a relatively mild climate. The temperature average for the warmest months (January and February) is 22°C (72°F), and for the coldest month (June) is 10°C (50°F). Rainfall is well distributed and averages about 890 millimeters (about 35 inches) a year. During the winter months, cold storms known as pamperos blow from the southwest, but frost is virtually unknown in most parts of the country. |

Black River works with two lodges located in the same area (25 miles of distance between each other). Groups of four hunters or less will stay at “El Tauro”. Larger groups will stay at “La Paz”. By doing so we guarantee privacy and personalized attention for each party, making them feel at home. “El Tauro” is a small typical estancia located at six miles of the city of Young (Department of Rio Negro), 200 miles away from Montevideo and 43 miles from the charter airport. This is the best accommodation for small groups. |

“La
Paz” is one of the first estancias in Uruguay with a lodging capacity
for up to 15 hunters. It is the best option for groups with more than 4
members. It exclusively hosts hunters from Black River.
Everything will be prepared for you: fire places rolling, drinks
and appetizers will be set out while the smell of a delicious dinner
will make you feel at home. |
