2017 placement dates coming soon

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/

Last call for returning volunteers!

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.

  • Sign making and mapping (08/05 – 21/05)
  • Long-range trail team (10/07 – 23/07)
  • GPS data gathering and trail mapping (28/08 – 10/09)

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!

Pre-departure meetings for our team

Tomorrow’s application deadline will be followed by a final round of interviews and placement allocations in February. Once these are completed, our attention will turn to preparing the team and organising the summer projects.

This season, we will invite all new participants to pre-departure Skype meetings that will take place 4-6 weeks before the placements start. These meetings are an opportunity to discuss travel plans and equipment as well as any other details. They will help to answer any last minute questions and ensure that all participants are prepared for their visit, and ready for their adventures in Thórsmörk.

Applications remain open throughout January 31st – Full placement details and application forms
