A specialist mountain hunting expedition through the spectacular landscapes of the Karakoram, Himalayas and Hindu Kush.
Explore Pakistan's regulated trophy-hunting opportunities for species such as Himalayan Ibex, Markhor and Blue Sheep, with local logistics, mountain support and private expedition planning.
The advertised logistics price on this page should not be interpreted as the total cost of a legal trophy hunt. Government hunting permits, trophy fees, auction or allocation costs, species-specific charges and required wildlife documentation are separate and depend on the current programme, species and availability. We confirm the applicable costs before final booking.
Trophy Hunting Pakistan combines a specialist wildlife expedition with the extraordinary scenery of northern Pakistan. The journey takes place in a region defined by the Karakoram, Himalayas and Hindu Kush, where remote valleys, high mountain passes and community-managed conservation areas create a very different hunting environment from conventional safari destinations.
Depending on the current government programme and permit availability, the expedition can be planned around species such as Himalayan Ibex, Markhor or Blue Sheep. The exact hunting area, species, permit conditions and dates are confirmed separately before the expedition.
This is a demanding mountain journey as well as a hunting experience. Travellers should expect remote terrain, changing weather, long road journeys and walking at altitude.
Species availability depends on the official hunting programme, annual quota, conservation area and permit allocation for the relevant season.
One of the principal mountain hunting species in Gilgit-Baltistan. The Himalayan Ibex inhabits rugged high-altitude terrain across parts of the Karakoram and surrounding mountain ranges.
Pakistan's iconic mountain goat and one of the world's most sought-after regulated trophy-hunting species. Availability is extremely limited and subject to government quota and permit conditions.
Also known as Bharal, Blue Sheep are associated with high mountain conservation areas in Gilgit-Baltistan and form part of the region's regulated trophy-hunting programme.
Gilgit-Baltistan's trophy-hunting programme is a seasonal activity. For the 2026–30 programme, the current official schedule runs from October into April, with the exact hunting dates depending on the permit and designated conservation area.

This starting figure refers to the tour/logistics component supplied for this itinerary and is not a government trophy permit or complete Markhor/ibex hunt price. Government permits, trophy fees, accommodation where not included, international flights, insurance, visas and other applicable costs are separate unless specifically stated in your quotation.
Pakistan trophy hunting is not priced like an ordinary sightseeing tour. Government permit costs can represent a major part of the expedition budget, particularly for rare Markhor permits. The final expedition quotation therefore has to distinguish between the local travel package and the official hunting permit or trophy fee.

Trophy hunting in Pakistan is a regulated activity. The applicable permit must correspond to the species, hunting area and season. International hunters should also confirm all relevant travel, wildlife-export, import and destination-country documentation before departure.
Gilgit-Baltistan's trophy-hunting programme was established with community participation and operates through designated conservation areas. The government wildlife department describes the programme as a source of revenue for local communities as well as the supervising wildlife administration.
Quotas are linked to wildlife surveys and programme rules. For a responsible expedition, the priority is therefore to work within the official permit system and respect the conservation area, local communities and wildlife regulations.
