What is the Yellowstone Association Institute?
The Institute is a nonprofit field school operated in partnership with the National Park Service to provide in-depth learning experiences for Yellowstone visitors. Our goal is to help you understand and enjoy this remarkable place.
What Makes the Institute Special?
We are Yellowstone's official educational partner, with more than three decades of experience offering programs inside the park.
Our instructors and naturalist guides are Yellowstone experts, with advanced training and extensive teaching experience.
We travel in small groups to provide a high quality educational experience with minimum environmental impact.
Which of our programs is right for you?
Lodging & Learning programs mix just the right amount of education and recreation on your vacation. You'll be based at historic park hotels and taught by naturalist guides who are intimately familiar with Yellowstone.
Private tours immerse families or other small groups in Yellowstone through one-day natural history tours in the park. An Institute naturalist guide will meet you at a predetermined location for your private introduction to park wildlife and ecology.
Backcountry Courses take you on a learning adventure in the vast wilderness of the Yellowstone area. Designed to be both light on the land and educational, backcountry courses are taught by a professional outdoor leader and a topic expert.
Field Seminars are educational experiences that go deep! Taught by researchers, field biologists, and other experts, field seminars focus on specific subjects such as predator/prey relationships, vegetation of the park, illustrating the wild, and observing wildlife.
Group Programs provide educational experiences for your private group. You can choose from a selection of one to multi-day programs throughout the Yellowstone area that are taught by Institute instructors.
