Hunting
OUR DATE : July 1st – October 1st
Hunting
Different hunting activities take place in various designated hunting areas. The specific location will be determined based on the species targeted and pre-scouting results. The average altitude is around 3,000 feet, and the terrain consists mainly of rolling hills. In the early mornings or late evenings, we drive and use spotting scopes to locate the best game. Once a target is identified, the team stalks on foot to approach it, with typical shooting distances averaging around 300 yards.
The entire hunting trip lasts 5-10 days. Accommodations are provided in traditional Mongolian gers, and meals are prepared by top chefs from the city, with bottled water readily available. The team includes experienced guides, interpreters, assistants, and drivers operating hunting off-road vehicles.
These hunts are organized annually from July 1st to October 1st.
