Location Details/Description: Denali National Park and Preserve, AK
Denali National Park and Preserve is located in the heart of interior Alaska, a 2-hour drive south of Fairbanks, AK. There are nearly 200 residents inside the park over the summer, including seasonal ranger and Member housing, permanent ranger housing and park concessionaire housing. The nearby communities of Healy, McKinley Village and Cantwell include a limited range of restaurants, cafes, and recreational businesses (e.g. raft guides, flight seeing, etc.). There is a full-service grocery store 10 miles outside the park; however, employees commonly drive to Fairbanks (120 miles) for larger shopping and supply trips. Employees without personal vehicles can generally find rideshare opportunities to run needed errands.
