Where to hunt Kri Kri Ibex
The Kri-Kri ibex, also known as the Cretan wild goat, is one of the most sought-after and exclusive hunting trophies in Europe, and for many hunters is the crown of the Capra slam. Native to Greece, this elusive species is primarily found on the rugged cliffs and rocky islands of the Aegean Sea, particularly Sapientza, Atalanti, and Gioura. These islands are designated as controlled hunting areas, ensuring sustainable populations and high-quality trophies. In addition to Greece, Kri-Kri ibex have been introduced to hunting estates in other parts of Europe, including Hungary and the Czech Republic.
