Katmai National Park in Alaska is famous for its brown bears, especially those feeding on salmon at Brooks Falls. The park also preserves the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, created by a massive volcanic eruption in 1912. Visitors witness dramatic wildlife behavior as bears fish in rivers and streams. The parks volcanic landscapes and remote wilderness offer a rare combination of geology and biology.
Katmais isolation protects its ecosystems and provides opportunities for scientific research. Its bear viewing platforms make it one of the best places in the world to observe brown bears safely.
