High sierra country in Spain, where the mountain hunts are based

What it costs

What a hunt in Spain costs

We quote every hunt rather than publish a list price. Here is what the all-in figure covers, what sits outside it, and what moves the number.

One figure, agreed before you travel

A hunt with us is priced as a package, not as a day rate with extras added afterwards. Once you have told us the species and the window you have, we come back with an itemised, all-in figure — and it is fixed in writing before you commit.

Everything in the list beside this is inside that figure. It is the same list that appears on every species page and on how your hunt works, because there is only one version of it.

In the package price

  • Accommodation
  • Meals
  • Guiding
  • In-country transport
  • Airport pickups & transfers
  • Hunting licences (per province)
  • General hunting insurance
  • Rifle rental — 7mm PRC; ammunition at cost
  • Taxidermy coordination
  • Trophy export coordination

What sits outside it

Some costs are genuinely not ours to quote, and we would rather name them now than surprise you later. Trophy fees are separate — they depend on the animal actually taken, and are settled directly or as agreed in advance. Taxidermy and shipping are handled the same way.

The rest is travel: international flights, travel insurance, any nights either side of the hunt unless we arrange them, and your own gear.

There are no back-charges. If something is not in the list beside this, it is in your quote.

Outside the package

  • International flights
  • Travel insurance
  • Accommodation before or after the hunt (unless arranged)
  • Trophy fees
  • Taxidermy & shipping costs
  • Personal gear

Before you ask

What moves the number

Four things shape the figure. Tell us where you stand on each and we can quote your hunt properly.

Which species

The four ibex are mountain hunts, each based near its own sierra — Gredos, Beceite in Teruel, the South-Eastern in Granada province, Ronda in Málaga. The finca species — red stag, fallow deer, mouflon — are hunted from the lodge at El Encinarejo. Travel, guiding and ground all differ, and so does the price.

How many days

A single ibex hunt runs 3 days / 4 nights. A Half Slam — two subspecies across two regions — runs 6 days / 7 nights. The full Spanish Ibex Grand Slam, all four subspecies across four ranges, runs 13 days / 14 nights.

One hunt, or a combination

You can take one animal, pair two into a combo, take a Half Slam, or run the full Grand Slam — in one trip or built over several seasons. The subspecies live in separate ranges, so a slam moves between them; taking them in one trip means one set of flights rather than several.

How many regions you cross

Hunting in Spain is licensed region by region — every autonomous community issues its own licence, and a Grand Slam can span several of them. We arrange the licences and the compulsory third-party insurance for each, and the number of regions is carried in your quote.

Questions about price, answered

How much does an ibex hunt in Spain cost?

We quote each hunt rather than publish a list price, because the number depends on which subspecies you are after, how many days you hunt, whether you take one ibex or build toward the Grand Slam, and how many regions the hunt crosses. Tell us the species and the window you have, and we come back with an itemised, all-in figure, fixed in writing before you commit.

What is included in the price of a hunt?

Accommodation, meals, guiding, in-country transport, airport pickups and transfers, the hunting licences for each province you hunt in, general hunting insurance, rifle rental with ammunition at cost, and coordination of taxidermy and trophy export. That is the package price — it is not a day rate with extras bolted on afterwards.

Are trophy fees included in the price?

No. Trophy fees are separate from the hunt package and are settled directly or as agreed in advance, because they depend on the animal actually taken. We tell you what applies before you book, not after the hunt.

Do you add charges after the hunt?

No. The figure we quote is all-in, with no back-charges. The costs that sit outside it — international flights, travel insurance, trophy fees, taxidermy and shipping, personal gear — are named up front so nothing arrives as a surprise.

Do I need to bring a rifle, or is one included?

Either works. Rifle rental is part of the package — mountain rifles chambered in 7mm PRC, with ammunition at cost. If you would rather bring your own, we manage the permit process.

Why don't you publish prices on the website?

Species, dates, days, regions and how you travel all move the number, so we quote each hunt and put the figure in writing rather than publish a list price.

Still deciding what to hunt? The species and seasons are all here, and the slam planner will put a shape on a multi-species trip before you write to us.
