The profile says you'll work 25h a week and have 2 days off. This is false as by the difficulty of the road to the city you are trapped in the place working and being attentive to visitors and receiving orders from Primoz. The place has beautiful views and making the trails in the middle of the forest is an experience that helps to find you. The place is a cabin in the lodge so it has no water service or electricity, you can charge cell phones thanks to solar panels and every week or 15 days you take water both to drink, wash and bathe. I recommend bringing alternate personal hygiene items.

The lodge Franko is great if you want to be out of the city for a while. The views of the city are amazing and you will be always surprised. The work is easy and you're going to have time to walk around the lodge. Take care of Dexter (dog) and Max (cat) is fun and they're really lovely. There is not WiFi and the bathroom it's outside so if you're looking for a hotel this is not the place.

Every day the lodge hikers come as guests to a club on Jude Franko Terebevic the lodge and we offer them something to drink. I would like to thank all of the guests who came, very kind and hospitable. Special thanks also to Gorona and Primoj. the lodge is a single house in the middle of the lodge, it sees the snowy city from the top and has a wonderful view. it had some difficulties, there was no place to take a bath for me and the toilet was outside so I had to return a little early.

I was lucky to make a friend like Primoz he is an amazing person, he taught me a lot about mountaineering and I am very grateful for that. The place is sensational, the work is simple and easy. I will never forget the moments I lived here. I made friends, had conversations and learnings that I never imagined. I will miss you all, you make my life better and i will never forget what i lived here. Thank you for everything !

This was for sure one of the best experiences I could have, the place is beautiful, Primoz and Goga are excellent hosts! Perfect place to connect with nature, go hiking and get in touch with local people! If I could, I would stay more time, because I just love it! And for the future, definitely I will return! ❤️

Taking this experience was without a doubt one of the best decisions I have made. Talking about the work it's nice, mostly you have to attend the guest's, they are mostly locals so you can really connect with them. The atmosphere in the cabin is great, calm, respectful and you have the opportunity to connect with yourself. Primoz Is good person and really take care about the volunteers Being in this cabin marked me and taught me a lot, I will always carry it with me and I hope to be able to return to repeat this experience. I highly recommend it, if you are considering. Take it! ;)

The primoz the lodge is on a the lodge at more than 1400 mmsl, you have a privileged view of the city of sarajevo and completely disconnected from the world (which I loved). the work is simple and in general the working hours are respected. Mountaineers come every day to have a coffee or a juice, so you can connect very well with the local people. goga is hospitable, loving and very friendly. both are very interesting people with whom you can talk. Regarding the negative things I can say that if you are a vegetarian it is better that you look for another option because you will not feel welcome.

Tive uma experiência muito legal! Conheci mtos locais e fiz várias amizades com clientes e com os outros voluntários, vivi várias coisas pela 1ª vez e lá tbm aprendemos dar valor a coisas básicas do dia a dia. O trabalho é bastante simples e tranquilo, apenas deixar a the lodge organizada e atender os clientes, durante a semana tem bastante tempo ocioso, é bom para fazer trilhas, no final de semana é um pouco mais movimentado. Não é tão simples ir para a cidade se vc não quer gastar. Primoz é um ótimo anfitrião e a sopa de feijão e de frango são deliciosas. Já sinto saudades do Mat e do Dexter ❤️
