Slovenianbears manages a network of 8 locations and 20 photo hides, that fit 2-4 persons each. The hides have been tailored to the needs of photographers, hence they have been selected carefully regarding location and light availability, they are approximately at eye level with the bears, and they are equipped with bean bags and offer options to fix tripod heads.

In June the days are at their longest, light conditions are optimal. With a little luck it’s now possible to see female bears with their offspring from this season. When the environment is safe with no male bears around, there is plenty of action from fluffy cubs. They are very active, play for long periods wrestling or chasing each other.

In November the colourful autumn season ends, leaves fall from trees and the first snow flakes cover the ground. The nature is preparing to rest, but not the bears. They are on the hunt for food to store up body fat.

In May the mating season starts and therefore the best time to come across the older, larger bears. Whilst they are normally loners, May is the time when the bears search for compatible partners in the lush woods of late spring.
