Bear, wolf and wolverine hides

Bear Centre specialises in observing the wildlife at very close distances; specifically the bear and wolverine. Although long telephoto lenses can be used effectively it allows the photographer to express creativity with wide angle lenses as well. Hides are suitable for filming bears and wolverines similar way.

Bears and Wolverines move all around the area, the primary thing what matters when selecting the hide is the type of surroundings you want to have. These hides are only a short 500 – 900 meters walk from the main lodge, and a path and boardwalks guides the way to the hides.
