Why Denali?
Denali National Park covers six million acres of untouched wilderness and is home to North America’s tallest mountain, Denali (20,310 ft). On your days off you can hike alpine tundra trails, spot grizzly bears, caribou and Dall sheep on a park bus tour, go whitewater rafting, take a flightseeing tour over the glaciers, or ride an ATV through the backcountry. In late summer, the tundra turns fiery red and gold — and if you stay into fall, you may even catch your first Northern Lights.
The lodge itself is a lively hub of young seasonal workers from all over the world. Expect campfires, staff parties, hiking crews, and friendships that last long after summer ends.
