Canada's wilderness lodges beckon
Canada's wilderness lodges are getting praise for their landscapes, wildlife viewing, and activities 2 — especially those unique remote hotels. What's the best time of year to visit these lodges for wildlife viewing?
The best time for wildlife viewing at Canada's wilderness lodges is generally between May and October. During this period, many animals are active, including grizzly bears, whales, and migratory birds. The specific timing depends on what you'd like to see. Bear viewing season kicks off in May and June as mothers emerge from their dens with cubs. You might spot grizzlies feasting on berries. Whale watching is also excellent during this time, with humpbacks starting their northern migration. September offers prime bear viewing in British Columbia as they follow the salmon run. In October and November, polar bears gather along Hudson Bay. Some lodges offer polar bear viewing with experienced guides.
