DAY 6: GOLDEN EAGLE FESTIVAL

   Drive to the site for today’s events, which, altogether, play a major role in preserving traditional Kazakh culture. There are very few ethnic people who use eagles for their hunting. How they train there is what makes the festival unique. Being a proficient eagle hunter takes years to achieve – by apprenticing with a master hunter. The ultimate goal is the ability to catch foxes for their pelts which protect against the bitter winters. It is not just training and hunting.  It takes a very strong, fit and well cared for the bird to catch a wild animal of this size.

   Many hunters followed in their father’s footsteps and were taken to the mountains at a young age to begin training. Alongside the eagle hunters, there are opportunities to purchase local handicrafts, Kazakh tents, and other traditional and locally made items.
