Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park Visitor Center

13 Amazing Free Places to Stay Around the World

"The National Park Service has also been inviting artists to create works as far back as the late 19th century. Today, the NPS has more than 50 different residency programs in the country, allowing you to stay at locations that range from wilderness parks at Alaska's Denali National Park and Preserve to the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park. At the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, for example, artists who are selected hike the entire length of the Chilkhoot Trail as part of a two-week backpacking trip, spending one to three days at each campsite. Positions are open to a range of specialties from photographers to composers, cinematographers, writers, and more." - Travel + Leisure Editors
