The Experience

Our volunteers share a house with 5 bedrooms. There's a kitchen and one bathroom. It also has a nice terrace with a nice view of a lake, right in front of the house. The house is situated, really beautifully in the middle of the wild forest, 4 km away from Ösjönäs, our B&B. The volunteers get a bike to use to get around.

I would really like to thank the host family for welcoming me and making my first volunteer experience so special. Although the tasks were slightly different from those described on the website, I was really happy to help out. They let me go horseback riding, try the high ropes course, and explore the beautiful forest by bike. It was a wonderful stay, surrounded by nature, full of positive vibes and kindness. <3

I highly recommend this place! I never felt more welcomed and appreciated as from this family. The work was fun and a good change from my free time. The surrounding area is stunning and because the camp is settled in the tiveden national parc you can go hiking, biking, horse riding and kayaking. The accommodation was awesome and the food as well. The trip was very calming for me and I enjoyed my time very much. I'm so grateful for this experience and the memories I've made. Thank you!!! 🫶🏻

I've enjoyed my experience at the host so, so much. The work was really nice and enjoyable, and Klas and Jessica always check in on you to make sure that you're doing alright and that you're not missing anything, which I appreciated a lot. Tiveden looks magical, like something out of a fairytale, and there are many ways to enjoy it and its nature: you can go on walks, hikes, kayaking, or on bike and horse rides, and you'll get in touch with foreigners, locals and volunteers alike. I'm bringing home so many good memories, and I truly can't wait to go back. Until then, I wish them all the best<3

I am really glad that I had an opportunity to volunteer in this beautiful place! The family is very caring, and it's important to them that you are satisfied and that you have everything you need. Their workers are also supportive and will show you everything about the job you need to do. Work is not hard, it includes only the things written in the description and depends on the needs of a particular day. The place is situated in the national park, and you can explore stunning nature by hiking, cycling or canoeing after work. You can even observe and admire forest, lakes and the ani
