Working in Ohiopyle State Park will be one of the most memorable jobs you'll ever have. You get to enjoy Pennsylvania's largest State Park paddling the river, hiking the trails, fishing and hanging out with a great group of folks. It's an excellent opportunity to share your love for the outdoors with others as a raft guide, outdoor shop employee, bike mechanic or through any of the other job openings. Working for Wilderness Voyageurs, you'll learn new skills and have an experience that will be with you for the rest of your life. Some of our staff have been working for us since 1977!

If you want to be a raft guide - this is the place to learn! No experience is necessary. We'll teach you all the skills you need to become an accomplished guide and be able to guide on a variety of rivers. If you want to be part of the team, but not a guide - there are positions in reservations, sales, the outfitter store or the restaurant.
