Great summer jobs in Denali National Park, Alaska

Company History & Philosophy


Denali Lodges is an Alaska-based company established in 1992 and committed to providing guests with the finest lodging and narrated Park experiences available. We own and operate an exclusive Backcountry Lodge located deep inside Denali National Park as well as a community of Cabins just outside of the Park entrance. In addition to the lodging, we conduct daily narrated wilderness bus adventures to Kantishna, the historic mining district 95 miles inside the park boundaries. The properties were built in 1989 and have been renovated about every other year since then. We are currently in the process of adding 12 new cabins and a Day Lodge to the Denali Backcountry Lodge to accommodate the growth of the business and add value to the package deals for guests. At the peak of the tourism season we employ over 60 people between the properties and during the winter months the number reduces to about eight.

Ecotourism is more than just a catch phrase for us; it's a management philosophy and a way of life. As representatives to the natural splendor of Alaska's unique and fragile environments, Denali Lodges is charged with respecting and preserving these natural wonders and instilling that stewardship mentality upon our guests. Through understanding comes appreciation, through appreciation comes respect and through respect comes preservation. Our employees consistently provide memorable guest experiences while maintaining a low impact on the land. We are the guests in this land so we strive to consider not just the wildlife, but also their fragile habitat that we are fortunate enough to behold.
