Program Details

We run a wilderness camp nestled amidst the forests and lakes of the Swedish Lapland, only 15-minutes drive from Kiruna. We are looking for 2-3 motivated, adventurous and respectful volunteers to join our international team and work together to provide best services possible to our guests from all over the world. We see it as a fantastic opportunity to connect and share stories and experiences, and we hope to learn from each other. Take this chance to get away from the fast pace of the city life, enjoy nature, learn how to work effectively in a well-prospering hospitality business. In the winter, you can marvel at the magical Northern Lights dancing above our heads several days a week, while in the summer you can experience the charm of the Midnight Sun in the place where the sun never sets.
