ABOUT FAT BEAR LODGE

Fat Bear Lodge sits on the banks of the world-famous Naknek River, in the pristine Bristol Bay watershed. Operating seasonally from June through October, our lodge is just outside the small remote town of King Salmon, Alaska, offering a truly authentic wilderness experience.

The Naknek River boasts prolific runs of all five species of salmon and is renowned as a trophy rainbow trout destination. With the fish comes an abundance of wildlife, making this one of Alaska’s premier locations for fishing, photography, and bear viewing.

Guests can enjoy world-class guided fishing, brown bear and wildlife viewing, backcountry side-by-side adventures, scenic flights, hiking, kayaking, beachcombing, and excursions to Aniakchak National Monument, Becharof National Refuge, and Katmai National Park.
