Asian Hunting Trips

Hunting in Asia is a grand adventure. The world’s largest continent, it holds more varieties of large animals than any other continent on Earth. Asia is a paradise for the mountain hunter with the largest variety of wild sheep and found anywhere in the world.

Asia also offers opportunities to hunt bears, gazelles, roe deer, stags, and other antlered game. The continent not only offers great hunting but also fantastic travel opportunities, with the chance to experience different cultures. In addition to wild country and lots of game/hunting-trips/big-game/bears-of-the-world/, you will see mosques, temples, historic ruins, and ancient cities and towns.

Popular Species for Hunting in Asia

Asia's biodiversity makes it a top destination for serious hunters. Focus on these sought-after species to attract trophy seekers:

• Argali Sheep: The world's largest wild sheep, including the legendary Marco Polo argali (hunted in Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan with spiraling horns over 60 inches), Altai argali in Mongolia's mountains, and Gobi argali in desert terrains .
• Ibex: Varieties abound, from mid-Asian ibex in Kyrgyzstan (up to 50-inch horns) to Altai and Gobi ibex in Mongolia, and bezoar ibex in Turkey.
• Brown Bears: Massive Eurasian brown bears in Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula, offering thrilling spot-and-stalk hunts .
• Deer and Other Game: Siberian roe deer, maral (Tian Shan wapiti) in Kazakhstan, red stags, gazelles, and tur (Caucasian goats) in steep Caucasian ranges.

These species thrive in high-altitude environments above 14,000 feet, demanding physical preparation but rewarding with once-in-a-lifetime trophies.

Top Destinations for Asian Hunting Trips

Our partnerships span Asia's premier hunting regions, each with unique challenges and rewards:

• Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan: Prime for Marco Polo argali and mid-Asian ibex in the Tien Shan and Pamir mountains—expect rugged hikes and stunning vistas.
• Mongolia: Altai and Gobi argali, ibex, and maral in vast, remote areas blending desert and alpine terrains.
• Pakistan: Sindh ibex, Blanford urial, and chinkara gazelle in arid hills, with community-managed conservancies.
• Russia (Siberia and Kamchatka): Brown bears, roe deer, and combined hunting-fishing trips in wilderness settings.
• Turkey and Azerbaijan: Bezoar ibex and Dagestan tur in accessible yet challenging spots.

Travel tips: Travel in Asia can be challenging because of the large distances to be covered, so some patience and flexibility in your plans is helpful. In many cases there is also a language barrier, as English is not widely spoken in much of Asia. Most outfitters will provide an interpreter in camp, but it’s likely your guide will not speak English. Visas and permits are handled by the outfitter's team to streamline your trip.

Thank you Outdoors International!

It was an amazing steelhead fishing trip! I brought my dad along with me and we slayed the fish. If you guys aren't applying for the OI Draws, you should. They're legit!

My most memorable and rewarding experience.

This was my first guided hunt, and the outfitter was amazing. He was able to keep me motivated and encouraged to hold out for true trophies. I would rate him on an 11 on a scale of 1 to 10! I never thought Africa would be a reality for me. Thank you Outdoors International.
