Description

Welcome to Knight Inlet Grizzly Bear Adventure Tours at Knight Inlet Lodge in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. Enjoy one of the premier grizzly bear viewing spots in the world, set amidst the dramatic snow-capped peaks of Canada's rugged coastline. Located 80 kilometres, or 50 air miles, north of Campbell River, British Columbia, is a wild and remote area of the Pacific Northwest known as Knight Inlet. Tucked into Glendale Cove 60 kilometres from the mouth of the inlet is Knight Inlet Lodge. Glendale Cove is home to one of the largest concentrations of grizzly (brown) bears in British Columbia. It is not uncommon for there to be up to 50 bears within 10 kilometres of the lodge in the peak fall season, when the salmon are returning to the river. The grizzly bears are abundant in the fall but this is not the only season that grizzlies frequent the area around the Knight Inlet Lodge. Starting in April, both black and grizzly bears begin emerging from hibernation and head to Glendale Cove and the estuary to feed on the succulent new spring growth. This is a great time for watching grizzly bears as they go about their daily lives. Even in mid-summer, when many of the bears have moved into the surrounding timber clearings to feast on berries, we usually are watching several bears each day as they move in and around the estuary and along the logging roads.
