James Hughes James Hughes

The Great Bear Lodge is situated fifty miles north of Port handy, British Columbia and is a fully self-contained floating lodge that is situated at an outstanding wildlife viewing location. From the viewing location, it is fantastic for viewing grizzly bears in their natural habitats and that is exactly what the Great Bear Lodge specialises in. Read this article to learn more about Great Bear Lodge.

Viewing the bears

The lodge is located in an area of outstanding natural beauty and tranquillity. This tranquillity means that the lodge is a fantastic place for viewing grizzly bears because they are undisturbed. In between grizzly bear tour viewing sessions, you will be able to join a guided activity such as sea-kayaking or an interpretive hike, or you may choose to relax with a book from the extensive library that the lodge provides. Viewing the bears is not difficult as many customers have reported that they managed to see grizzly bears on every viewing trip. It is not just grizzly bears who live in this wildlife though. Other animals Other amazing animals such as wolves can also be viewed if you are lucky enough and with so much salmon in the waters that the lodge floats in, many other animals can regularly be seen feeding. To sum things up, when it comes to viewing amazing wildlife in its natural environment, it doesn't get a lot better than the Great Bear Lodge.

The lodge

The lodge is so secluded that it can only be reached by aeroplane. This aeroplane trip is included in all lodge costs and just adds to the amazing experience that the great bear lodge offers. The floating lodge has five bedrooms in log cabins by Aviemore and a common area. The common area is a comfortable place for relaxing and listening to natural history presentations from the wildlife biologists who are on hand to provide their expertise throughout the whole time that you are there. Each bedroom comes with a washroom and all of the lodge is solar powered. Wooden decks surround the lodge providing superb viewing platforms right on the edge of the lodge.

Dining

As the bear lodge is located out in the wilderness, the lodge thus specialises in the very best natural, organic food. Freshly caught salmon is popular although the lodge does cater for all dietary requirements.
