The Brown Bear population in Estonia is 600 and rising. Their primary "home" is in Alutaguse, the large forested region that includes a national park and a bog in northeastern Estonia, close to the Russian border.

Join us on this nature tour where we'll investigate the life, behavior and habitats of the Brown Bear. Last season there was 92% chance of seeing one of these spectacular predators, but other animals often come into viewing range, as well.

We're guaranteed to easily find claw marks, slots and droppings, tracks and marks as we drive and walk, assisted by our experienced tracking guide.  In the evening we'll head for the bears' feeding area and set up for the night in the hide, which offers comfortable viewing and photographing, with 8 seats, bunks, and a dry toilet.
