Bella Coola Valley has one of the largest concentrations of grizzly bears to be found in the whole of British Columbia. So it’s not that surprising that – if you make nearby Tweedsmuir Park Lodge a must on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Canada – you will meet grizzlies.
You will also meet with a whole host of other adventures in the wilds surrounding this collection of authentically-styled woodsman chalets and cabins. You could, for example, take a helicopter to the most remote fishing spots, or normally unreachable hiking points. Or drift along the beautiful Atnarko with an expert fishing guide. Or cruise a magnificent fjord on the hunt for crab and shrimp. Or explore the culture and heritage of the Nuxalk people…
