Hunting in Kyrgyzstan

Kyrgyzstan, a country of snow capped mountain peaks, high altitude pastures, crystal clear lakes, rushing streams, unique flora and fauna. A hunter's paradise, especially considering that the culture of the nomads is based on hunting. Each settlement has its famous hunter, with years of experience and an infallible instinct for animals. They have tamed many falcons in their life and understand the art of falconry and they can take you under their wings and teach you in turn.

Hunting in the Tian-Shan, what great images that evokes even while the very words roll off your tongue. This is a relatively un-discoverd part of the world, Kyrgyzstan just as the other Central Asian countries is an up and coming destination and now is a good time to consider a trip to these far flung lands. People are genuinely friendly, nature is unspoilt. There is good tourism infrastructure in terms of Travel Agents who will organize anything you need, any trip to your liking. Buttourism is notvisible, you are mostunlikely to stumble upon signposts, roadside souvenir shops and kiosks; mass tourism is as yet a dim probability on the horizon.

Hunting and Fishing, this is a great place to travel to when these are your favorite past times and recreations. Hunting season starts from 15th of August and lasts till the 1st of December. Spring's hunting period starts from 1stof March and lasts till the 315th of March. Consider the possibility of coming home with the trophy of an Ibex, be daring and make it the trophy of a Marco Polo sheep.

Would you like some reference data?
A trophy of 155cm in 1991, 152cm in 1998. Who can beat that?
