Brown Bear Activities

Orsa Finnmark hosts the most dense wildlife bear population of Sweden. Here, in the region around Kvarnberg, where wolve, wolvorine and lynx share the wilderness with the bears, the mayor part of the Swedish field research on wildlife bears is done.

By booking one of our activities you have the unique chance to get in contact with the largest Brown Bear Research Project of the whole world!

Björn & Vildmark can offer multiple arrangements with the "Scandinavian Brown Bear" as the central topic. Our information is up to date, and sometimes even before "press".

Guidings in the Bear Park Orsa Grönklitt
In 2012 we do not offer scheduled guidings. Please book a guided tour in advance.

In case the schedule does not match with your travel plan, please ask for extra activities. Often it is possible to switch languages or dates so it fits for your needs.

By the way:
By booking our activities you finance the following projects:

  • "Free of charge"-information events on local schools.
  • Aquisition of forest areas that shall not be exploited.

When you are unsure which activity would fit for you, please talk with us about your concerns. We will help you to get the most out of your "Bear-Activity".
