Home • Alaska Fly-in Bear Viewing Tours


Alaska bear viewing and seeing an Alaska brown bear up-close in Alaska's wilderness is considered the ultimate Alaska wildlife viewing and photography experience. Alaskan Bears may be encountered anywhere in Alaska, even in urban areas. Numerous close bear encounters occur every year in Alaskan cities, but nothing compares to visiting one of Alaska's bear viewing wilderness hot-spots where you can often see not just one bear but many within view.

Brown bears or grizzlies are normally solitary animals but when the salmon return to Alaskan rivers to spawn, bears will concentrate in a few hot-spots to take advantage of the abundant food source. It is only during these short periods that bears tolerate being close with their own kind. Even then fights often occur as they jostle for the best fishing position.
