Observe and appreciate the diverse wildlife of Pine Valley
Animals you might encounter during your stay
Commonly seen grazing in meadows during dawn and dusk. Watch for mothers with fawns in spring and early summer.
Early morning (5-8 AM) and evening (6-8 PM)
These clever creatures are occasionally spotted near forest edges. They're generally shy and will avoid human contact.
Twilight hours, especially near wooded areas
While rare, black bears inhabit the area. Always store food properly and maintain safe viewing distances of 100+ yards.
Never approach. Use bear-proof containers.
Majestic raptors often seen soaring above the lake hunting for fish. A truly spectacular sight!
Mid-morning near the lakeside areas
Tall, graceful birds frequently spotted along the shoreline patiently hunting for fish and frogs.
All day along Riverside Nature Walk
Flocks often roam campground edges. Males display impressive tail fans during spring mating season.
Early morning in open meadow areas
Move slowly, speak softly, and give animals time to appear naturally.
Observe from a safe distance without disturbing wildlife behavior.
Dawn and dusk offer the best wildlife viewing opportunities.
