The search for our new Thórsmörk team is about to start…
Full details of our volunteer placements planned for 2017 will be available here on December 15th. Placement outlines and application forms will be published on our homepage… https://trailteam.is/opportunities/
We have collected together some of our favorite pictures from last season and published them in an album on Pinterest; 2016 Thórmörk Trail Volunteers.
We would like to thank everyone who worked with us and supported us through another great season in Thórsmörk. We hope that you have good memories of your days on the trails, and that you enjoyed your time with us.
It was a summer filled with drain building, digging through rock, long hikes with equipment and the endless carrying of timber to distant work sites… as well as those highland adventures, the great meals we shared and the many evenings we spent around the campfire.
A huge amount was achieved this season and the results speak for themselves. We really feel very lucky to have worked with such great teams – Thank you all!
Our season officially ends today and we will take a short break before recruitment for 2017 begins. Project information, placement details and application forms will be published here on December 15th and we will start the search for our new team…
This year we have a series of special 2-week projects open to experienced volunteers who have worked with us before. Before we close applications for this season, we wanted to make a last call for participants…
The projects follow our regular 2-week placement format but are particularly challenging because of their timing (early or late season) or location.
These placements are open to any volunteers who have worked with us before. If you are interested in joining us again or finding out more about the projects, please get in touch; thorsmork@trailteam.is
The final deadline for applications in April 23rd so don’t delay!
Finally, we have completed our search for volunteers for the summer and this week we are finishing the interviews and placement allocations.
We have been overwhelmed by the amount of interest and the number of applications that we have received. However places are limited and it has been a real challenge to make the selection. It is very nice to have so many volunteers return to Thórsmörk to join us for a second season.
As we are now allocating the last places and waiting lists have been crated for the teams, unfortunately we cannot consider further applications for this summer.
Each season, our search for volunteers begins in mid-December and runs for six weeks. The deadline for applicants is at the end of January.
