A visit to our Shooting Estate “La Montefeltro,” our flagship estate, combines everything you could desire in a trip to Italy. This is more than just a hunting experience; it is an immersion into the rich cultural and natural tapestry of the Italian countryside.
The Shooting Estate
La Montefeltro shooting estate, situated in the province of Piacenza, in Rivergaro near Milan, spans over 1,000 hectares of pristine hunting grounds. It is renowned for bird shooting with pointing dogs and offers big game hunters the opportunity to hunt roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) and wild boars. The estate’s diverse terrain includes dense oak woods, expansive alfa alfa fields, bramble hedges that border vast wheat fields, and pastures dotted with ponds and small streams. These natural features create a habitat that attracts game even during the hot season, making it a paradise for hunters.
The Wildlife
This extraordinary habitat supports a significant number of roe deer, many of which boast trophies of great interest. The dense woods and open fields provide the perfect environment for wild boars, offering hunters thrilling pursuits. Whether you are tracking a majestic roe deer or waiting for a wild boar to emerge from the underbrush, the experience is always exhilarating.

We are excited to announce the addition of our new luxury suites, designed to offer our guests the utmost comfort and elegance during their stay.

Beyond the top-class hunting and exquisite scenery, the picturesque towns of Rivergaro and the surrounding areas offer a refreshing glimpse into the storied country. Resort like the “Castello di Rivalta” and restaurants like “La Locanda del Falco” offers a tast of italian culture. These charming locales invite you to explore their narrow streets, visit family-owned restaurants, and immerse yourself in the local culture. Every meal is a celebration of Italian culinary tradition, with fresh, locally sourced ingredients and time-honored recipes.

What People Are Saying
I wanted to thank everyone at Montefeltro once again for the marvelous hunt and meal.
They made us a customized offer (for the whole family) that we have accepted very willing.
Before our trips all the necessary information has been provided and after arriving in a beautiful accommodation, we’ve spent three wonderful days of hunting with very good dogs in an unforgettable landscape. The guides were fantastic and I hope we have the opportunity to return in the future.
Everyone had a unique experience and we sincerely appreciated the hospitality and all your efforts in making the experience at Rivergaro a success.

Montefeltro has perfectly combined hunting and leisure in Italy.
Many thanks from my wife who appreciated the tour of Milan and Piacenza while I will never forget the marvellous fallow deer trophy and the visits to the Ferrari museum and Pagani factory.
Thank you Montefeltro.
See you next year.
