I couldn't have asked for a better first volunteering experience. The whole atmosphere at the Alpen is about peace, inner calm and acceptance. I am very grateful for the meaningful encounters and experiences that I got to have during my time here. The tasks are agreed on weekly in advance, so that everyone knows what they'll be doing and what days they are off. A big, heartfelt thanks to the owners, Wolfgang and Elly (and co-owner Elijah of course), for creating this peaceful haven in the Alps and allowing people to experience it as volunteers. I had a truly wonderful time. Bis nächstes Mal <3

Sophie and I had a wonderful stay at Alpen retreat. We were welcomed immediately with open arms by Elly, Wolfgang, and the lovely manager Elena. This is the perfect place to come to experience nature (beautiful lake and hikes nearby!), slow days, and the BEST food cooked with love by chef Fabi 😘 The working hours were very manageable and the owners da very good job at making you feel part of a team with the other volunteers. We were also allowed to take part in a few classes with the guests during our stay We will miss the atmosphere at Alpen retreat and we hope to be back one day! Xx

Alpen retreat is the best retreat center in Europe.. Everything is so beautiful, from the Amazing Nature around it, to the nice and kind people like the owners Wolfgang and Elly and the amazing volunteer coordinator Elena, together with all the volunteers, this place was a great personal university of Awareness, natural life and meditation. I suggest you to visit the Alpen Retreat as soon as possible.. It's an amazing volunteer opportunity.. Blessings and love to everyone

We were welcomed immediately when staying at the Alpen. Tasks are explained in detail when you arrive and you are always welcome to ask more questions. The accomodation is a cosy house for volunteers with enough room for everyone. We loved staying here although we cut our time shorter. We would love to return ❤️

The Alpen is a magical place. It's a space to slow down, reconnect with the beautiful surrounding nature and with yourself. You can join amazing retreats and explore different practices. The work is fair and enjoyable, but what truly makes this place special is the people. You're always surrounded by kind and loving people who welcome you with open arms and quickly feel like family. From Elly and Wolfgang to the volunteers, everyone helps make this place feel truly magical I'm deeply grateful for my time spent here.

I had a really great time at Alpen Retreat! It is a perfect place if you need to get out of the big city and reconnect with nature! You can go on walks through the forests and mountains, explore the little town Nassereith, go to Zugspitze or da short trip to Innsbruck on your days off. The working hours were respected and the instructions were clear and there was always someone to help :). The team is great, making you feel like at home and the food is delicious!!! Thank you for this opportunity!

Wow, the most amazing and special volunteer experience ever! Set amongst the Alps, it is truly a magical place to connect with nature, meet like-minded people and embrace slow living. The tasks were very evenly spread between the team, the expectations were clear and the whole team made you feel so welcomed and valued. Elly, Wolfgang and the staff are so welcoming, are always there to help you out and also have amazing local knowledge on things to do in the area. This is one experience I will never forget and I am so grateful for my time in the most special place, until next time Alpen xx

Alpen was one of the best volunteering experiences I've had! The workers, owners, and volunteers are incredibly kind, generous, and fun. The location is stunning, with breathtaking views, amazing hikes, and a river and lake nearby. Volunteer accommodation is shared and separate, and the food was always delicious and plentiful. During retreats, especially silent ones, time in the main house and yoga hall is limited, but the volunteer house is cozy. I'm so grateful for the time spent, the lessons learned, and the wonderful people I met. Hope to come back one day!
