Why Landing, Alaska?
The Kenai Peninsula is the stuff of travel documentaries. Your days off can be spent hiking alpine trails, rafting the turquoise Kenai River, spotting moose, bald eagles and bears, fishing for world-famous salmon, or chasing waterfalls under the midnight sun – in Alaska’s summer, daylight lasts almost around the clock.
The lodge sits close to Kenai Fjords National Park and Chugach National Forest, with easy access to Seward, Homer and Anchorage for weekend adventures. Few Work & Travel destinations in the USA give you this much nature, adrenaline and photo-worthy scenery in one season.
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.
