Unique Wildlife Experiences
Bear Centre offer some of the best opportunities anywhere in the world to view wild brown bears safely at close quarters.
Remember that bears are wild animals and they move with free will and to their own schedule. Sometimes one night is enough to see bears. The probability to see a bear is 90-99 % , depending on the month.
Each season about 20-30 bears visit the hide area. Some evenings several bears may be seen at the same time and the nearest bear may be a few meters from the Bear Watching House. In addition to bears, the hide area is regularly visited by 1-4 different wolverines, foxes and 1-2 times per week by the local wolf pack.
