The word Lochinvar is Scottish for Lake in the Valley. Since being established in 2004, we have formed strong positive relationships with ranch owners giving us access to some of the finest trophies and best hunting grounds in New Zealand. We have also built a team of professional hunting guides whose experience, professionalism, and dedication are second to none. It has proved to be a winning formula with some of the world’s most discerning hunters returning to hunt with Lochnivar time after time.
Mark Harrison Owner/Outfitter Ever since I was old enough to fire a rifle I have hunted the New Zealand back country. I am very passionate about sharing my passion with others and have been a professional hunting guide for over 29 years and an outfitter for 24 years. I’ve guided in Australia, the USA, and New Zealand's best hunting and scenic locations. I am also an International Member of Safari Club International, the New Zealand Professional Hunting Guides Association, and is a Master Measurer for Safari Club.
