Abstract: In their first article, the authors initiated a systematic study of hyperbolic $Lambda$-metric spaces, where $Lambda$ is an ordered abelian group, and groups acting on such spaces. The present paper concentrates on the case $Lambda=mathbf{Z}^n$ taken with the right lexicographic order and studies the structure of finitely generated groups acting on hyperbolic $mathbf{Z}^n$-metric spaces. Under certain constraints, the structure of such groups is described in terms of a {em hierarchy} similar to the one established for $mathbf{Z}^n$-free groups by Kharlampovich, Myasnikov, Remeslennikov and Serbin.
