Siberian Ibex Hunting
For mountain hunting enthusiasts, Siberian ibex is among the most prestigious trophies, making this hunt the most popular in Kazakhstan. The ibex population ranges from the Pamirs to the Altai in southern Kazakhstan and is considered one of the largest in the world. Three subspecies are recognized in Kazakhstan: Altai, Dzungarian, and Central Asian. Ibex can weigh up to 120 kg, with horns reaching lengths of up to 150 cm.
Transfers to hunting grounds can be organized directly from the airport, or accommodations in Almaty city hotels can be arranged upon request. Base camps in hunting areas feature comfortable lodges, serving as starting points for radial hunts on horseback or off-road vehicles. A typical ibex hunting tour lasts 5-6 days. European and traditional cuisine is available at the base camp. After harvesting the primary trophy, hunters may pursue roe deer, wolves, upland birds (ulars, partridges), fish in mountain rivers, or explore national park landmarks.
Hunters should be in good physical condition and capable of moving in mountainous terrain. Horseback riding skills significantly ease the hunt.
