Program Details

Volunteers find their own transport to Soča Valley. From there we provide transport to the ranch. From the ranch there are multiple trails and a river within 5 minutes walking from the house. Volunteers will be in a shared room (up to 2 guests) and will have access to the shared bathrooms with 3 private shower rooms and 3 private toilet rooms. There is laundry on-site. There is a fully-equipped, shared kitchen. Outdoor seating, fire pit, relaxation platform with hammocks and 5 acre meadow. The volunteer will be provided breakfast and expected to work up to 5 hours per day on the specific project of the week. They will have access to free yoga sessions and a ride into town every day with the owner. They will have the option to ride back to the ranch or walk (it's about 10km from town via a river trail).

We have Starlink wifi that is decent but not great for streaming so this is a good opportunity for a digital detox.

Guests will have 2 days off per week and can do what they want with the option of discounted adventure sports through the owners connections.
