Heartland Elk Hunt - High Fence Elk Hunts

Heartland Elk Hunt operates a high-fence elk ranch in the scenic Niobrara River Valley near Valentine, Nebraska. Their 300-acre property sits at the convergence of multiple ecosystems—boreal forest, ponderosa pine, deciduous forest, and prairie grasslands all within reach. That variety of terrain means you hunt through everything from dense timber to open grasslands to steep canyons.

The ranch maintains a carefully managed herd bred for impressive antler mass. Since it's private land, you don't need state hunting permits or tags. Every guest has an equal shot at a trophy bull.

Their guides use multiple tactics depending on conditions:

• •UTV-assisted scouting and travel
• •Elk calling
• •Spot and stalk hunts
• •Ground blind setups

Guides are described as "seasoned hunting experts" who adjust strategy whether you're a first-timer or experienced hunter.

• •Option 1: $1,200 non-refundable deposit (includes 4 days/3 nights lodging)
• •Option 2: $600 non-refundable deposit (hunting only, lodge separately)
• •Additional hunters: $600 per person
• •Non-hunting guests: $250 per person
