Why Denali National Park?
Denali is home to North America’s highest peak (20,310 ft / 6,190 m), six million acres of untamed wilderness, grizzly bears, caribou, wolves and Dall sheep. In the Alaskan summer you’ll enjoy up to 20 hours of daylight, which means endless time after work for hiking, whitewater rafting, ATV tours, ziplining, flightseeing over the glaciers – and if you stay into the fall, your first look at the Northern Lights.
Denali Park Village sits right on the Nenana River, just minutes from the park entrance, and the staff community here is famously friendly: bonfires, hikes, movie nights and lifelong friendships with students from all over the world.
About Alaska
Alaska is the ultimate Work & Travel adventure - glaciers, Denali, midnight sun and untouched wilderness. Most students work in remote lodges, national-park resorts and on tour boats, earning some of the highest summer wages in the country.
