Such a beautiful and meaningful experience!Volunteering at the lodge Franko the lodge on Trebević was something truly special, and I'd recommend it to anyone who loves nature. What made it so special to me was that there were lots of other volunteers which I quickly became close with, the view was stunning and you really have the chance to reconnect with yourself! the lodge is well loved by hikers and can get quite lively, especially on weekends. It was a real pleasure meeting Primož and enjoying this cute little the lodge in the mountains! Will definetly come back someday! ❤️‍🩹

This was my first volunteering experience, and it was amazing. I will definitely come back next year. Primoz is funny, very caring with everyone, and he teaches leadership as well as daily tasks to keep everything in order.

I had such a great time volunteering here! This was my second time volunteering and it was so much better than expected. Primos was such a good host, and the lodge itself is in such an amazing spot, where you get to meet other volunteers from around the world, but also many friendly locals! Just make sure you wash your clothes before going up there, since there isn't a washing machine. Thank you for the best time!!

I really enjoyed living in the lodge for a few weeks. Be warned it is off the grid so no shower & the diet can affect you after a while. However the work was really easy, serving hikers drinks & soup on the weekend & occasionally in the week and a bit of busy work. It's a really unique experienced & hard to summarise but I highly recommend!!!

It was such a really nice experience! the lodge Franko is a place totally connected with nature, so you can enjoy the views, have walks around and feel the peace in the mountains. The tasks were relaxed; in the weekends a lot of people go there to enjoy the place, and during the week it's just keep the space clean and tidy. I really recommend the experience ♡
