What's NEW at Kenai Fjords? Kenai Fjords National Park provides a number of different ways for you to stay connected and informed about news, special events, and projects that are happening in the park.
The park was established in 1980 by theAlaska National Interest Lands Conservation Actto preserve in perpetuity unique fjord and rainforest ecosystems, the vast Harding Icefield, rich and varied marine and terrestrial wildlife, and historical and archeological reminders of the native peoples of the Alaska coast. In addition, Kenai Fjords National Park is mandated to provide for visitor enjoyment and access to the coastal fjords, Exit Glacier, and the Harding Icefield in a manner that maintains them unimpaired for future generations.
Volunteers help out at Kenai Fjords National Park with various aspects of park management including trail work, exotic plant removal, coastal research projects and providing information to park visitors.
We fill positions in many fields, including interpretation, maintenance, administration, resource management, education and law enforcement. Some jobs are office-oriented, others focus on working with the public, and some involve working outdoors. Each job performs a vital function - that of providing visitors an opportunity to enjoy a unique experience, while working hard to preserve natural and cultural resources for future generations.
Public support is a critical component in the management of National Park Service lands. No other federal agency relies as heavily on the generosity and kindness of its visitors, and we thank you for your past support and look forward to future partnerships. From volunteering to shopping in our bookstore, there are many ways that the public can support Kenai Fjords National Park:
