Alaska Geographic Youth Expeditions

Alaska Geographic works closely with land protection agencies to organize youth expeditions in Anchorage.

Trips are for students ages 13-18, with no outdoor experience required. Planned expeditions include backpacking and kayaking all over the state's national parks. For a full week, teens have the opportunity to disconnect from life and reconnect with nature, surrounded by other kids their age.

Alaska Geographic works to connect people with Alaska's many parks and forests. Through education and exploration, they aim to fund sustainability efforts and instill a love for the environment in the young participants.

Students can receive scholarships for their programs, they just need to apply.
