Wild Bear Lodge

Wild Bear Lodge (formerly Grizzly Bear Ranch) is a small, specialised wilderness lodge about halfway between Vancouver and Calgary. We are located in the world's only inland temperate rainforest, a vast hideaway of ancient mountains, old-growth trees, and fast-flowing rivers. We offer some of the most exciting and natural bear-viewing, nature and w... ilderness holidays in north America, against a backdrop of some of western Canada's most dramatic terrain. The focus of what we offer varies seasonally. In May and June we concentrate on bears, other indigenous wildlife, and 's magnificent nature. We roam far and wide, through ancient rainforests and into the sub-alpine. During the warm summer months we head high into the mountains to remote hiking trails. We also raft the river that runs past the lodge and take a boat out onto wilderness lakes. In September and October, as the Fall colours arrive, we once again focus on bears and wildlife, especially wild Rocky Mountain grizzly bears. We walk and raft through their terrain as the red salmon arrive to spawn, and head into the alpine to watch high-elevation grizzlies feeding on berries.Read More
