Elk Bugling Tours
Elk Bugling Tours
During the the Rut, you’ll see (and hear) elk putting on a show to find their mates. Experience this unique event in September and October with a special two-hour, keeper-guided Jeep tour through our Free-Roaming Area.

Bugling, sparring, clashing
Get out in the rut
Ever heard the eerie sound of an elk bugling? The loud clash of antlers? If you’ve been to Northwest Trek during the “Rut” (breeding season), you’ll never forget it. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for bugling calls, sparring and more.
