Hasn't lost any of its charm over the years. Wonderful Train ride and bear show. Museums haven't changed since I went there as a little girl, and thats okay. Wonderful time for the whole family!

A family run New Hampshire tradition since 1928! The bear shows are the main event. The attractions, food and merchandise offerings round out a pleasant half day experience. The entire location is spotless from top to bottom. The park staff are first class and make each guest feel welcome! Definitely will return!

We absolutely loved Clark's Bears. The Bear show is really cute and the bear cubs were a ton of fun. The Chinese acrobats were pretty good too. We also enjoyed the waterslide, the main town and the Segway Park was a ton of fun. And don't forget the train too. You can tell the family has a lot of pride in their establishment as it is kept very clean and the service was excellent. Sit up top for the best view of the shows.

Clarks bears was such a fun place to visit during our vacation. The kids had so much fun and it was absolutely worth the cost, which wasn’t bad at all. We brought my niece along and she and our daughter and son loved it so much that they wanted to go back the next day but we had other plans. They rode the train three times because they loved the Wolfman-the ride through the woods was pretty and Wolfman interacted with everyone, the effects were awesome and it was just a lot of fun. The water number boats and snake water slide were a hit as well as the circus show and bear show. That was the best part-the bears. They were so neat to watch. We all had so much fun that we plan on going again next year! Definitely a fun place to go on vacation in New Hampshire!

Questions & Answers

How much are the tickets?

Christine Roaf | Aug 24, 2017
Clark's Bears | Aug 23, 2020

Our tickets are $24 ages 4-64 and $21 for ages 65+ The park will open for weekends only starting May 23-June 14. Daily operations begin June 20, 2020. Great question about only being open one minute on Wednesdays! Google will not allow us to show we are closed for the season. The best we can do is to open for one minute per week. I know it is crazy! Hopefully, soon Google will recognize seasonal businesses. Thanks for the questions!

Can we take food with us?

Neha Shah | Aug 24, 2018
Clark's Bears | Aug 24, 2018

Thank you for your email. We allow our guests to bring coolers with food into Clark’s Trading Post. We have a lovely picnic pavilion next to our little Main Street, overlooking the river. We ask that there be no alcohol or grills on our grounds. You can come and go to your car as many times as you wish. Simply show us your handstamp when returning to the park. Recently we built a carry in/carry out picnic area with 20 picnic tables across the street from the park next to the large glacial boulder. You may park your car next to this picnic area to avoid carrying your food in and out of the park. You may choose the option that works best for you. Thanks for asking!

is there a lot of walking at Clarks and is it very sunny or places with shade for resting

A Google User | Aug 2, 2022
Jodi Langellotti | Aug 2, 2022

This is a small park, so while there is walking, it isn't too much. There are a decent amount of benches throughout the park, some in the sun, some in shade. The shade will depend on time of day, however there's some tree cover over by the shooting range. There are also two benches nestled up against the building near the "gas station" (museum), at the end of the building, facing the anaconda slide, with decent shade.

There is a Segway park that you can ride around for a few minutes for free "included in the admission prices" or for $35.00 extra you can get a 45 minute guided Segway tour through the woods and through Wolfmans territory! Definitely fun to see from a different perspective!

Sounds kind of silly, but when I was a kid my dad brought me to a place and said it was this one. I remember almost like a wooded area with friendly deer that would come right up to you and a zip line that takes you through the areas. Is this it?

Madison Hebert | Aug 23, 2020
Clark's Bears | Aug 23, 2020

Hmmm, that was not at Clark's. I can't think of a place that has both ziplines and deer. Depending on how long ago, perhaps it was Santa's Village, Polar Caves, or long ago Fantasy Farm (Nature Land) they used to be a couple of miles from us, but are no longer open.

Hours of opperation

Cheryl Baker | Aug 24, 2018
Liz | Aug 24, 2018

I think it's 9:30 to 5:30 but their hours change depending on the point in the tour season that they're at. Definitely check out their official website I'm not sure but they may operate based on weather. I've been there in the light rain but I don't know if they close down if it's heavy downpours all day. The gift shop is definitely worth popping into and they are open a little bit later than the park itself I believe. Definitely check out their official website though they are very good at keeping it up-to-date and very detailed.
