Oliphant hunting in Wardesia – The most exiting sport in the world. Are you man enough for the challenge?

It is a little known fact that alone among the fabulous beasts shown in Peter Jackson’s motion pictures “The Two Towers” and “The Return of the King” the magnificent Oliphant was filmed live in scenic Wardesia.

Whilst the Fell Beasts and Trolls and Balrogs were being created in a computer in New Zealand, Jackson brought a dedicated film crew to Wardesia and spent six weeks filming this awe-inspiring creature. The pictures of the Oliphant were then digitally inserted into the battle scenes.

Now you too can experience the thrill.

With prices starting at only 5000 GBP (12000 USD) per day*, highly skilled native hunters will guide you deep into the Wardesian bush where, like Legolas the elf, you can experience the thrill of the hunt, where only the bravest and most skilful survive succeed.

Armed only with the traditional weapons, the hideki and the wataki, you will confront the great Oliphant.

Are you up to the challenge?
