The Experience

Without Electricity and flowing water to a splendidly simple way of life. We run an organic farm with a cabin in the nearby mountains. You spent your stay alone in our beautiful log cabin in the mountains. You help us to keep the pasture free of weeds and look after the cattle. You can do laundry, charge your cell phone or take a shower on our farm at any time. At the beginning we will pay for a bulk purchase of food according to your wishes.

Such an amazing stay, Anna and her family are the most wonderful people. The cabin is very cute tucked into the mountains. I was able to eat both home cooked meals with Anna and cook my own meals in the cabin with a campstove. Perfect place to disconnect and read lots of books!

Unforgettable experience! I spent two amazing weeks in the Alps, surrounded by stunning nature and kind, welcoming people. The family was super hospitable — I felt at home. Despite the lack of electricity in the hut, I always felt comfortable. Family provided everything necessary and even more. I enjoyed working on the farm and hiking in the mountains during free time. The views are breathtaking — ask Anna for the best routes! It was hard to say goodbye. I'll miss this place, the lovely people, and the animals :)

A once in a lifetime experience! Anna and her family are extremely welcoming and kind. The farm work is only 3h per day (not too strenuous) and in between I was fed a delicious home cooked meal using the seasonal produce grown in their garden (I felt apart of the family). The cabin was also extraordinary, nestled in the beautiful alps. Whilst there is no electricity, this is a great place to just switch off, go back to living simply, and enjoy time in nature. This was truly the best volunteer experience, and i would highly recommend it (bring a couple of books with you)!

This place is perfect for living in a self-sustaining way in nature, and also to experiencing the typical Bavarian way of life (super interesting and idyllic). I lived in a wood hut in the middle of Nature next to big mountains. The next shop is in the next village and on the way you will encounter lots of animals like cows, or other farm animals 🐮 + many stars at night 💫. I liked the free-time and self-managing. This Trip was also super helpful on learning many things like how to live in Nature, with animals, on a farm and also how to climb mountains.⛰️ Thank you for this rich trip!
