A Wilderness Retreat For The Whole Family
Deciding where to go for a family vacation can be difficult. There are so many factors to consider that can make or break your trip. Furthermore finding a place that suits everyone’s preferences can be difficult, if not nearly impossible. Family reunions can be especially difficult to plan, as you have to appease a group of families and individuals of a wide range of ages. While many families may choose traditional options such as theme parks or all inclusive beach resorts, there is something to be said about reconnecting with nature in a traditional sense as a family. No huge screens or animated characters, just the incredible natural magnificence of the Bella Coola Valley.
This region is in the heart of the Coast Mountains and host to some of the most magnificent landscapes in the world. Grizzlies and other large mammals call this mountainous region home and continue on their daily activities in the thick and diverse old growth forest undisturbed by the local accommodations and it’s visitors. Tweedsmuir Park Lodge is an award winning wilderness resort that can provide the whole family with a lifetime of memories. Large groups can be accommodated as private chalets give individual families the privacy they require, while the communal dining hall is an intimate setting for everyone to enjoy each other’s company. Locally grown ingredients make their dining experiences just as amazing as the scenery that encompasses you.
Originally build as a fishing cabin in 1929, Tweedsmuir Park Lodge is the gateway to reconnecting and discovering the natural world. Running the length of the valley is the Bella Coola River, an important local waterway for transport and a rich source of Salmon. The fertile sedimentary soils, temperate climate and reliable water activity combine to create a hospitable habitat for healthy wildlife populations. You won’t have to travel far to see some of the local wildlife as the lodge has dedicated animal viewing opportunities on site.
While the facilities are ideal for large family gatherings and reunions, the daily activities you can choose from are perhaps the most endearing. The Canadian Tourism Commission recently selected the Lodge’s interpretive Grizzly Bear Tours as a member of its’ prestigious “Signature Experiences Collection” which includes tourism operators from all over Canada who offer unique, exceptional Canadian experiences, rather than just passive sight-seeing. This provides the family with an opportunity to have a real life adventure together and cohesively have a once in a lifetime experience to see these majestic animals in their natural habitat.
Regardless of the seasons, Tweedsmuir Park Lodge is an amazing location for your family to spend quality time together. In summer months animal tours and hiking adventures can accommodate participants of all ages and helicopter tours are available to provide you with an incredible bird’s eye view of the area. In the winter these helicopters will take you to some of the world’s most incredible ski destinations as heli-skiing is a popular activity in the winter. If you have been looking for a resort to comfortably accommodate your family (or groups of families) look no further than the majestic accommodations at Tweedsmuir Park Lodge in the Bella Coola Valley.
Nestled in the heart of the Bella Coola Valley, Tweedsmuir Park Lodge has the facilities and scenery to make your group retreat one to remember. Information about their award winning grizzly bear tours can be found here at www.tweedsmuirparklodge.com/adventures/grizzly-bear-safaris.
