Volunteers wanted! Trailteam applications for 2026 are now open

Today, we begin our search for volunteers who will join us in 2026.

We are very excited to begin gathering the team for next season. Our new programme includes both three and four-week volunteer placements, and our planned trail maintenance and conservation projects continue throughout Thórsmörk and Goðaland next summer. Places are limited, and allocations begin in the New Year, so if you would like to join us next summer, don’t delay!

Full details, including placement descriptions, dates, and application forms, are now available here…

Thank you to our volunteers!

Thank you to everyone who joined us on the trails this season. This year, we were joined by 44 international volunteers, and together we completed more than 150 weeks of trail maintenance and practical conservation tasks throughout Thórsmörk and Goðaland.

Our last October task was to survey the worksites and take a look at all the season’s projects. It was very encouraging to see so many repaired sections, and the improved drainage has clearly been working very well. Despite some remote locations and the challenging conditions, a huge amount was achieved this season, and the results speak for themselves.

We really enjoyed working with such great teams and hope that our volunteers have good memories of their time with us on the trails and their adventures in Thórsmörk.

After a short break, we will begin gathering our trail volunteers for 2026. Full details, including placement dates and application forms, will be available here on December 15th.
