The inland Koryak rode [[reindeer]] to get around, cutting off their antlers to prevent injuries. They also fitted a team of reindeer with harnesses and attached them to [[sled]]s to transport goods and people when moving camp.{{sfn|Jochelson|1908|}}{{page needed|date=October 2020}} Today the Koryak use [[snowmobiles]] more often than reindeer. Most inter-village transport is by air or boat, although tracked vehicles are used for travel to neighboring villages.{{sfn|King|2011}}{{page needed|date=October 2020}}

They developed [[snowshoes]], which they used in winter (and still do) when the snow is deep. Snowshoes are made by lashing reindeer [[sinew]] and hide strips to a [[tennis racket]]-shaped [[birch]] bark or willow hoop. The sinew straps are used to attach the shoe to the foot.

Children learned to ride a reindeer, sleigh, and use snowshoes at a very young age.

The other Koryak were skilled seafarers hunting whales and other marine mammals.
