Hunting & Falconry
Go hunting with ethnic Kazakhs, who have practiced falconry using golden eagles for centuries. Early winter is considered to be the best season for hunting, as foxes and other game acquire winter furs. Another good time to witness this sport is in October during the annual Eagle Hunting Festival that celebrates Kazakh culture in Bayan Olgi.
