Marco Polo & Ibex Combo
Hunt in Kyrgyzstan
Two Legendary Mountain Trophies. One Expedition.
Experience one of Central Asia’s ultimate mountain hunting adventures with a Marco Polo and Mid-Asian Ibex combo hunt in Kyrgyzstan.
This expedition gives hunters the opportunity to pursue two iconic species during one journey through the remote Tian Shan Mountains — Marco Polo sheep across open high-altitude terrain and Mid-Asian Ibex among steep rocky ridges and alpine valleys.
For international hunters traveling to Central Asia, a combo hunt offers exceptional trophy opportunity, variety, and value.
Why Choose a Combo
Hunt?
A combination hunt allows you to pursue two major mountain trophies during a single expedition.
Key advantages include:
- Two iconic Central Asian species
- Efficient use of international travel time
- Excellent trophy potential
- Experienced local guides and horsemen
- Horseback access to remote mountain areas
- Traditional spot-and-stalk hunting
- Spectacular Tian Shan scenery
- Authentic Kyrgyz hospitality
The two species require different hunting strategies, making the expedition more varied and rewarding.
Hunting Marco Polo Sheep
The Marco Polo sheep (Ovis ammon polii) is famous for its spectacular spiral horns and ability to survive in harsh high-altitude environments.
Rams are typically found in open mountain terrain where hunters and guides rely on extensive glassing to locate mature animals.
Once a suitable ram is identified, the guide studies the terrain, wind, and animal movement before planning the stalk.
Hunting Mid-Asian Ibex
The Mid-Asian Ibex (Capra sibirica) offers a different mountain challenge.
Mature billies inhabit steep rocky slopes and broken ridgelines, where careful glassing and a strategic approach are essential.
Their impressive backward-curving horns and remarkable agility make them one of Central Asia’s most sought-after mountain trophies.
Hunting Area & Method
Our combo hunts take place in remote regions of the Tian Shan Mountains of Kyrgyzstan, often at elevations above 3,000 meters.
The terrain includes:
- Open mountain plateaus
- High alpine valleys
- Rocky ridges
- Steep slopes
- Snow-covered peaks
- Vast glassing areas
Travel may include vehicles, horseback riding, and hiking.
A typical hunt involves early departures, long-range glassing, trophy evaluation, and carefully planned spot-and-stalk approaches.
Guides remain flexible throughout the hunt, focusing on whichever species offers the best opportunity based on weather, terrain, and animal movement.
