The region around the lodge is a pristine, unexplored wilderness. So, while your guides do offer several pre-planned hikes and excursions, there are true discoveries to be made and adventure in every direction. The natural splendor of the brief but intense Arctic summer surrounds the lodge, making it a naturalist's paradise. Bird watchers will be astonished and delighted by both the frequency and abundance of sightings of species that any birder would love to see even once, including: king and common eider ducks, swans, snow geese, loons (3 species), sandhill cranes, gyrfalcons, peregrine falcons, golden eagles, rough-legged hawks and several species of gulls to name a few. A variety of day hikes and boat trips will offer opportunities for you to view muskox, caribou, grizzly bears, arctic wolves and arctic hare.
