Alaska's Wild Legacy

The Alaska Centers support the appropriate use and enjoyment of Alaska's public lands and resources through "one-stop shopping" for information, trip-planning assistance, and resource education. The Alaska Centers are a system of information and education centers that help provide visitors and residents with meaningful, safe, enjoyable experiences on public lands... and encourage them to sustain the natural and cultural resources of Alaska. These centers are nationally recognized for providing consistent, high quality services at all four locations.
