Planting trees in Sweden for a better eco balance

I spent three amazing weeks at Skålsjögården! The volunteer house was cozy and perfect for bonding with others. I worked in the kitchen with Sabrina, who created a relaxed, stress-free atmosphere and trusted me to work independently. Sabrina and Jonas were wonderful hosts — always kind and thoughtful, often organizing fun dinners like taco nights to make everyone feel welcome. They truly care about the volunteers' experience and always checked in on us to make sure we were doing well. I highly recommend this experience!

I had a great time during my stay! The hosts are a big family, and Sabrina and Jonas were very welcoming. The full time staff at the restaurant is very friendly and sociable as well. The hosts provided wonderful accommodations with private bedroom and full service bathroom/kitchen. Everything was neat and tidy! The work was standard for restaurants. A car was provided which volunteers were able to take out into the small towns nearby on our days off. The hosts cooked wonderful family meals as well! I would definitely recommend Skalsjogarden :)

The whole experience was awesome! Sabrina and Jonas were great hosts, they were very accomodating and helpful with understanding the tasks to complete, and also with giving advice to how best enjoy the area with our time off. I would recommend Skålsjögården to anyone who wants to volunteer, or to go there for a holiday!

I had such an amazing time at Skälsjögården! It was my first ever Worldpackers and it was unforgettable. Sabrina & Jonas are great hosts, and I instantly felt welcomed and apart of their family. The staff facilities were nice and the beds are comfortable. I actually loved the work, especially because it was different most days. Sabrina and Jonas were really great with giving us extra time off if we worked overtime. The surrounding nature is absolutely stunning, there's some nice walks to go on after work or on days off. This place will always have a special place in my heart.

They have a lot of nature all around the lodge that you can easily discover during your free time. A lot of different tasks need to be done so it never gets boring!! I liked the family and the kids a lot:)

I had an absolutely amazing time staying at Skälsjögärden. Jonas and Sabrina were very friendly and welcoming. They always made sure that everything was alright for us volunteers and made sure we enjoyed our stay. I got to experience so many things such as seeing the northern lights, snowmobiling or snowshoe hiking. The work was easy and the tasks were varied. It was a memorable time for me and I'd totally recommend staying at Skälsjögärden. Thank you for making my time in Sweden unforgettable and thanks for the amazing experience.
