This lodge is unique in that it offers polar bear viewing in August and September, which means better weather, and you can see the stunning fall colours of the arctic tundra. The lodge is situated only a few hundred metres from the coast line and bears are often seen right up to the lodge's enclosed compound. The compound keeps guests, and bears safe. During the day you will venture out onto the tundra on guided tours to view the bears in their most natural setting. Coastal ground tours will provide you with a personal connection to the raw and natural oceans edge before you. An open concept of travel through this environment provides for equally interesting adventure, as you traverse 35 km of established trails with All-Terrain-Vehicles. With no other lodges on the coast within 150 km, and the sky line is unlimited. Strict protocol while traveling in this high density polar bears domain is applied/enforced.
