For the intrepid outdoor types who love being in dynamic landscapes with lots of activities to keep you busy, Grizzly Bears tours is a paradise! Whether it’s relaxing out in the wilderness or doing something more extreme, Tweedsmuir Park Lodge has what you want. Unbelievably, they offer grizzly bear viewing trips, which are exactly what they sound like!

Located in the Bella Coola region of British Columbia, every aspect of Tweedsmuir Provincial Park’s backdrop is stunning. It’s situated among picturesque mountain peaks, cool streams, fjords, and lush old- growth forests. It’s the kind of place where you can have a wonderful time even when you’re doing nothing, as the surroundings alone inspires you. But that said, there are tons of great outdoor activities to choose from, and local guides show you the way and teach you about the area, so it’s more fun than ever. You can register for specific daytrip excursions. The grizzly bear viewing trip is one such excursion.

When the salmon are spawning and the river is literally full of them, the bears know an easy meal can be had. That they are well fed is good news, as it makes them very comfortable around other bears, and of course around humans. While mentioning bear watching may sound scary or reckless, this is actually one of the safest bear habitats in British Columbia. The bears can be seen sometimes sleeping on the grass, relaxing, but the best way to really watch them in their element requires a small drift down the river, where because no motor is used the bears are seen in virtually they’re most native, undisturbed conditions. This makes it more ideal than many bear viewing sites that either don’t have as many bears, or are inherently more disturbing towards the bears’ natural habitat.

Personalized guides take you safely and expertly on small, but comfortable boats with raised seating. For naturalists who are also photographers, such an excursion offers an unparalleled chance to take pictures of the great beasts. And sometimes, one drift puts as many as 15-20 bears in view! From August to September is high season, and towards October things begin to cool out a bit.

For people used to being in the city, getting out into such a rugged part of the natural world can be quite startling! As it should be: this way, it’s a real reminder of what the world used to be like, and such opportunities to hang out inside a pearl-like provincial park should be appreciated for all they’re worth. What makes you feel like you’re outside the office more than staring at a group of grizzly bears calmly going about their lives? No matter how gorgeous other outdoor sites are, they don’t all have bears securely and safely on view! And when you take into account the entire setting, the gorgeous rivers and the mountains, it’s truly an excursion you won’t ever forget.
