Description
The annual polar bear migration sees these magnificent carnivores trek along Canada’s CapeChurchill coastline each October and November. Fly up into the Arctic from Winnipeg to follow them across the snowy landscape, with two full-days of polar bear watching in specially adapted tundra vehicles. You’ll need to come prepared with the right gear, but with proper layering you’ll be ready to head out into the Arctic landscape and enjoy a great northern adventure. Your base will be AuroraInn or Polar Inn in the Hudson Bay town of Churchill, Manitoba. As well as the polar bears you’ll have the chance to spot other Arctic wildlife and maybe even a glimpse of the fabled Northern Lights, too.
