The Great Ice Bear Adventure Dymond Lake Lodge
The Dymond Lake Eco-Lodge tour takes you to the very edge of the Boreal forest, where the Land of Little Sticks gives way to the great tundra plain. Remote fly-in destinations (the only ones on the Hudson Bay) ensure that your wildlife encounters take place in an exclusive pristine setting while enjoying all the creature comforts of home in a world-class true wilderness lodge specialising in on-the-ground personal encounters with Arctic wildlife including the Great Ice Bears. 
Day 1: Winnipeg arrival (D)
Arrive in Winnipeg where you will stay at the Four Points Sheraton at Winnipeg Airport. Enjoy dinner at the hotel where you will meet your group and your adventure specialist.
Day 2: Winnipeg - Churchill (B,L,D)
After an early start, arrive in Churchill by air where one of our expert staff will meet you at the airport and provide you with an orientation to the tour including clothing check. You will then be transferred by fixed wing aircraft to our Dymond Lake Lodge. Keep a sharp eye out en route for possible sightings of caribou, moose, seals, wolves and the Great Ice Bears. Your hosts will provide a tour of the Lodge and get you settled into your room. A thorough ori­entation on travelling in polar bear country will be provided prior to any outings. Today includes a guided hike on our rugged and starkly beautiful coastline, an interpretive slide show featuring the wildlife of Hudson Bay, and hopefully a clear night for viewing the Aurora Borealis. Dymond Lake Lodge features a heated Aurora Dome for northern lights observation. All this will be topped off with a lunch and dinner where your hosts and guides will regale you with tales of life and adventures in Canada’s Arctic. We will also have local presenters on hand to provide guests with an insight into the local cultures and traditions.
