EXPERIENCE THE WILD
Alaska wildlife viewing tours at Wildman Lodge include an incredibly scenic flight from Anchorage. You will travel by twin engine aircraft through Lake Clark and Katmai National Parks, along the volcano-studded Alaska Peninsula Wildlife Refuge, viewing wildlife and exploring the wonders of the unique Alaska Peninsula. Photograph glaciers, volcanoes, and miles of untouched wilderness along the way, then down the Bering Sea coastline, all before reaching home base: Wildman Lodge. Here in Alaska’s true wilderness brown bears, foxes, moose, and many more wild creatures are our closest neighbors. Join the experienced Alaska Bush Pilots and Wilderness Guides at Wildman Lodge for a wildlife viewing experience that you will never forget.
Wildman Lodge is located where the Bering Sea and Bristol Bay come together. Each summer several thousand adult male or “bull walrus” (2,000 to 4,000 lb) arrive in our area. Only ten miles from the lodge is one of the most frequented Pacific Walrus haul-outs. Here we generally see anywhere from 300 to 3,000 walrus on any given day. This is as up close and personal to wild walrus as it gets, a once in a lifetime experience. Our guide/naturalist will answer questions and explain the unique life cycle of the Pacific Walrus, staying as long as you like before returning to the comfort of our cozy wilderness lodge.
MOTHER NATURE’S BACKYARD
On the Alaska Peninsula the Brown Bear is king! The peninsula has one of the highest population densities of brown bears in the world. The brown bear population in our area is well-nourished by the millions of Pacific Salmon that return each year to the local rivers. Brown bears are relentless beachcombers and can often be seen along the black sand beaches of the Bering and Pacific coasts, as well as fishing for salmon along our numerous rivers. We take every opportunity to show our guests the brown bears, as Wildman Lodge is one of the best places to view real wild brown bears, totally undisturbed, in their most natural habitat.
ROOM TO EXPLORE
At Wildman Lodge, you never know when a photo opportunity will present itself. From the smallest ground squirrel to the enormous Alaska brown bear, the sheer abundance of wildlife is astounding.
Explore the black sand beaches of the Aleutian coastline and search for artifacts: antique glass fishing floats, fossils and whale bones, and more. Whether you are a professional or an amateur, you will want to have your camera ready.
