Review:
Fortress of the Bear is a three-quarter acre habitat that is set against the Tongass National Forest. Visitors come from far and wide to see the amazing bears that live in the naturalized setting. The fortress is home to three populations of bears, which you will be able to observe from a large covered viewing platform less than twenty-five feet away. Being in such close proximity to the them will let you get to know their unique personalities and better understand the many aspects of the fortress. Tours are held throughout the day and last about half an hour each before ending with a visit to the gift shop, so you can purchase souvenirs to take back with you.
