Sulaiman Markhor Hunting in Pakistan – The Wild Majesty of Balochistan
The Sulaiman Markhor (Capra falconeri jerdoni) stands as one of Pakistan’s most iconic and majestic mountain animals, admired for its impressive spiral horns, rugged beauty, and commanding presence. Found mainly in the Sulaiman Mountain Range of Balochistan and parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, this remarkable species is perfectly adapted to the region’s arid cliffs and rocky slopes. With horns that can grow beyond 45 inches in length, the Sulaiman Markhor is one of the most prestigious hunting trophies in Asia, symbolizing strength, endurance, and the untamed spirit of Pakistan’s wilderness.
For those seeking an authentic mountain hunting adventure, Sulaiman Markhor hunting in Pakistan offers a rare and unforgettable experience. Every hunt takes you through breathtaking landscapes filled with steep ridges, sunlit valleys, and vast wilderness untouched by time. Under Pakistan’s Community-Based Trophy Hunting Program (CBTHP), Sulaiman Markhor hunting is conducted responsibly and sustainably—ensuring the protection of wildlife while providing vital income to local communities. A significant portion of the hunting fees goes directly toward conservation efforts and village development, making each hunt a contribution to the preservation of this magnificent species.
Recognized globally as one of the world’s most exclusive mountain game hunts, the Sulaiman Markhor represents the perfect balance of challenge, prestige, and purpose. Beyond the trophy, it offers a deeper connection to Pakistan’s rich natural heritage—a journey through rugged mountains where adventure, conservation, and cultural beauty come together in perfect harmony.

Important Note
The provided pricing is determined by current trophy permit rates applicable for 2025-26. Our company is committed in
absorbing minor costs increases. However, in the event of substantial rise in permit fees, the hunter will be responsible
for covering the additional expenses.
Our quotations are structured based on the existing trophy permit costs and prevailing rates for accommodation,
transportation, etc. Trophy permits are allocated to Pakistani outfitters through an open auction, with permits granted
to the highest bidder at fixed prices. In cases of marginal increases during the auction, we will include these in the cost.
Yet, significant changes will be communicated and invoiced separately for the hunter’s awareness and payment
