The plan

The bear hide

ACCOMMODATION

The hide is equipped with 2 beds measuring 140x200 cm, which can accommodate 2 people each. Additional mattresses are available for larger groups. There are also blankets, warm ponchos, pillows, and warm slippers of various sizes. The floor is insulated, and there are rugs on top for added comfort.

A toilet is provided in a separate room inside the cabin. If you need some rest after the long night in the hide you are welcome to rest in one of the beds at Sara's house.

Please be aware that reception is limited in the hide. If you are traveling with children, we recommend downloading movies and games before your stay, as the reception is only reliable for phone calls and texts.

Add one more night of excitement!

Many of our guests say they wish they could stay longer. Well, now you can! Choose to stay one more night in a different hide perfect for night photography. This extra night gives you more opportunities to see and photograph wildlife. What is special about this hide is that it has a water pond just in front and the space in front of the hide is lit up all night, giving you a unique chance to take photos of animals active during the dark hours. It can accommodate 1-2 people with beds, camera slots, and a toilet. When you book this extra night, you will have access to a guest room at the lodge during daytime and you will have a lunch with us. You can arrange these two nights in any order you like. Just click the booking button to see available days.
