Wilderness Trips & Wildlife Viewing in Bella Coola Valley
The Bella Coola River is formed at the confluence of the Talchako and
Atnarko Rivers, near the western boundary of Tweedsmuir Park, providing a
natural transit route to bisect Bella Coola Valley's diverse ecosystems. Our
Wildlife Viewing Trips encompass both rivers as we drift in comfortable rigid
bottom dories or expedition rafts. Silently floating down the river we have the
opportunity to observe wildlife in pristine habitat without disrupting the
animal's natural behavior. Join professional river guides and biologists for a
memorable half or full day drift on one of these classic rivers.
Trips 3 to 5 hrs from $95.00 Call 250-982-2298 to book

Daily Trips August 15 to October 15
From May through July numerous birds, including eagles, waterfowl, kingfishers, merlin,
heron and songbirds congregate in the biologically diverse riparian areas adjacent to Bella
Coola Valley's rivers and streams, flourishing in the lush coastal temperate rain forest.
Small mammals including otter, mink, fox, beaver and deer are also commonly seen.
Black bears are active throughout most of the summer and fall throughout the Bella Coola
Valley and chances of seeing single bears or family groups is favourable on any trip!!! For a
period of a few weeks in August and September, grizzly bears congregate along the river
banks, stalking the Pacific salmon that will supply their energy and fat reserves for their
dormant winter period. These majestic animals are often seen on our late summer and fall
trips!!!

Kynoch West Coast Adventures has worked in cooperation with BC Parks and other tour operators in the
region to implement a series of wildlife viewing protocols that provide animals the space they need for
uninterrupted behaviour and reducing possibilities of humans negatively affecting animals in a tour
environment. Holly and Fraser (your hosts at Brockton House Inn) and Kynoch West Coast Adventures'
founders and primary guides are professional environmental biologists, having worked in wilderness
areas completing fish and wildlife research and ecological projects throughout BC, and have an intimate
respect for wildlife and the ecology of the region..
Although a large majority of Kynoch Adventures' guests are treated to incredible wildlife viewing,
(particularly of grizzly bears, often with cubs!!!) Kynoch Adventure cannot guarantee an encounter with these
wild animals and ask guests to appreciate the wilderness experience of being on a beautiful wild river for
what it is in itself. But we always hope for bears!
