Churchill polar bears

Description Churchill, Manitoba, located 1,050 kilometres north of Winnipeg, is considered “the world capital of polar bears”. Every autumn polar bears gather on the shores of Hudson Bay. Once the bay freezes up, the bears head out on the ice to hunt seals during the winter, and animal lovers travel aboard the Hudson Bay train to see them! If you travel in VIA’s sleeper class from October 1-31, 2007, you’ll also enjoy all meals included in the price of your ticket, unlimited coffee and tea, and access to the exclusive Park car with scenic dome. Imagine seeing polar bears, the rugged Arctic habitat — and maybe even the aurora borealis — up close!
