Morocco provides a North African hunting experience that blends mountain game and driven wingshooting. The main season runs from October to March, with hunts permitted Friday through Monday; turtledove shooting takes place from July to September. Barbary sheep (Aoudad) and Barbary wild boar are the primary big‑game species, while wingshooting targets partridge, hare, woodcock and ducks.
Cork forests, agricultural valleys and rocky mountains make Morocco a versatile destination for both big game and wingshooting.
Béni‑Snassen Mountains Located in northeastern Morocco, these mountains are the main hunting area for Barbary sheep (Aoudad). Hunts involve glassing rocky slopes and stalking rams, with moderate physical exertion. Snow may cover the peaks later in the season.
Cork Forests & Agricultural Plains Wingshooting for Barbary partridge, hare, woodcock and ducks takes place in cork oak woodlands and farmlands. Hunters walk up birds or participate in driven shoots, typically held Friday through Monday.
Wild Boar Zones Throughout Morocco’s forests and farmland, hunters pursue Barbary wild boar using dogs and driven hunts or high‑seat ambushes. These hunts are popular with European visitors and can occur year‑round.
Turtledove Fields During July and August, agricultural areas attract turtledoves. Shooting occurs in the early morning and late afternoon and can be extremely high‑volume.
