Churchill on Hudson Bay is the world's most accessible wild polar bear destination, where specialised tundra vehicles roll out daily each autumn to meet bears gathering along the coast as they wait for the sea ice to form. October and November concentrate dozens of bears within reach of town, including sparring young males and mothers with cubs, while summer visitors can spot bears from boat tours alongside thousands of beluga whales. Reached only by air or a two-night train from Winnipeg, this remote subarctic outpost has built a rigorous, safety-first viewing culture over four decades.
