Service/ Volunteer

Give back to public lands on a volunteer vacation. Accommodating all levels of skill and stamina, these trips include tasks like building and maintaining trails, repairing meadows, helping archaeologists, and eradicating non-native vegetation. For more information, visit our volunteer vacations page.

Typically, one to two days are free for hiking, swimming, and exploring the surroundings. Most trips involve camping, but we also offer lodge-based trips for participants who like a bed and shower at the end of the day. See individual trip brochures for information on accommodations and work projects.
