HUNTING METHOD
The hunt takes place individually with a local guide, usually on morning and evening stalks. Mountain slopes and valleys provide varied terrain for locating game. Each hunter is accompanied by their own guide.
THE SIBERIAN ROE BUCK
The Siberian roe deer (Capreolus pygargus) is larger and more robust than its European relative and is known for its impressive antlers. The mountain regions of southern Kazakhstan are known for large specimens. The trophy fee for a Siberian roe buck applies regardless of trophy size.

Accommodation is provided in the hunting area with full board. Depending on the selected location, the experience may also include accommodation in luxury yurts on the steppe. Participation by a HEMING team member is possible by agreement, subject to camp capacity.
