Farm stay at our unique alpaca farm in beautiful surroundings

Germany

Volunteering at the farm was such an incredible experience! I was the only volunteer for the first week, but I felt more than welcome from Hege and her whole family. They invited me to their family activities such as a boat trip to an island on easter and also Heges dad showed and told us a lot about the place and the norwegian culture. I loved taking care of the animals (especially the baby rabbits:)), but also the other tasks were fun and never really felt like work. Time went by too fast and I wish I could've extended my stay. I'd definitely recommend volunteering at the farm to anyone!!

Hege is a great host, her welcoming spirit, helpfulness and kindness was always apparent. She almost always gave us multiple tasks to choose from so we would be happy with the work. She was also happy to give us advice on what to do in our free time. Daniel, her husband, wasn't as involved with the volunteers, but he was always kind when I met him. John, Heges dad, was also very kind to us. He took us out on his boat for fishing trips and to show us the nearby islands, and he would tell us a lot about the history of the place. I would love to come back, and I recommend this place to anyone!

Life on the farm has it all. From the varied work outdoors and with the animals to the crafts in the barn, you can learn a lot about life on a farm. This place is absolutely magical because the nature you live in is breathtaking and easy to explore.Hege's father John showed us the most beautiful places of the fjord, fishing and much more. It's always important to Hege that you enjoy your work and she's a very warm-hearted and kind person who will make your time here unforgettable. You're welcomed with open arms from the very beginning. Thanks for everything. Highly recommended.

Volunteering at the farm was an unforgettable experience! From day one, Hege welcomed me with open arms, making me feel right at home. Working with the alpacas and other farm animals was a dream—feeding them, watching their playful interactions, and enjoying their peaceful presence was truly special. The breathtaking landscape made every moment even more magical. The work was rewarding, the atmosphere relaxed, and the connection to nature and people was something I'll never forget. Thank you, Hege, for this amazing experience! 🥰

My experience at the farm was truly magical. Hege is the most lovely host. She is extremely caring and the amount of trust and appreciation we as volunteer received made it a pleasure to help her with the work. I had an amazing time with the other volunteers in our own volunteer house, which offers everything you could ask for The landscape is simply breathtaking, so in our freetime we did a lot of hikes and even went on boat tours and did icebathing So if you are looking for a place to reconnect with nature, animals and yourself don't miss the chance to come to this special place <3

First experience with worldpackers and it was the best. Hege is and incredible person and host: she' s caring, kind and helpful, she' s very organized and even if the work can be sometimes tiring for the body it's all doable and very satisfying! (Also she was always assuring that was okay for us and telling to take breaks if needed). The farm is really cool, the house was a welcoming home, nothing was missing and the views were breathtaking. Thanks to Hege's father (John) we had the opportunity to go fishing and visit the surroundings! Hege is a person with a heart of gold, highly recommended!

Our stay at Opplev the farm was truly unforgettable. We cared for alpacas, chickens, and rabbits, did halter training, and helped with barn construction—learning so much from Daniel. Work hours were flexible, making every day enjoyable. A huge thanks to Hege's father for the amazing boat trip, where we even got to steer, and the unforgettable fishing adventure in the fjords. The area offers fantastic hiking, sledding in winter, and kayaking in summer. Our cozy volunteer house felt like home, especially with sweet Tusi the cat. Thank you, Hege! We'll be back! ❤️

Staying at the farm was my first experience and I couldn't have expected better. I spent one month there and all I can say is that it was perfect. I learnt a lot about alpacas and how endearing they can be, as well as the chicken and rabbits. I am going to miss them! Hege is an amazing person too, she truly cared about our well-being and our interest in the tasks we had to work on. Thank you very much to John as well who taught us how to fish and accompanied us on his boat to visit the surrounding islands and the most beautiful viewpoints😊 I met a lot of nice people, thank you!
