Save

The shelter for young bears was built with the aim of preserving bears in the Velebit area and is open to visitors during spring, summer and autumn. Since bears are dormant during the winter, they are avoided and the visits are exceptional if they are really necessary. During the spring and autumn, visitors should report to the Volunteer Station upon arrival, so that one of the long-term volunteers can welcome, guide, guide and inform them. In summer, local guides will welcome, inform and animate you. If you love animals and would like to volunteer, the Velebit Open-Handed Shelter welcomes volunteers. In the last few years, the Kuterevo Shelter for Young Bears has hosted an average of 15 volunteer groups, more than 50 individual volunteers and more than 20,000 visitors a year.

Best shelter for bears to visit during summer, spring and autumn. It was a nice experience seeing bears moving all around.

The bears were cute and cuddly especially the baby bears. We were able to see them in their natural habitat and learn their behaviours

We visited the place with my kids and they loved the amazing little bears and some other big ones rescued from zoos and other places. Some of our questions were answered and took photos at the place.
