For those who enjoy the great outdoors and adventure, this project is ideal! At the base of the Chilean Andes, in a breathtakingly picturesque, nearly unspoiled setting of lakes, crystal-clear rivers, mountains, and primordial forest, lies a 3000 hectare natural park managed by our volunteer project. Within the protected region, one may see characteristic habitats of southern Chile: temperate rainforests with millennial trees supporting a diverse array of wildlife species.

A managed ecotourism project is the only way to open up this enchanted region of the world to the public without causing harm: while visitors are welcome, the preservation of nature is of utmost importance. In order to ensure that the capacity is never surpassed and that the normal course of events is not disturbed, only a restricted number of people may stay there at once.

There are 18 km of hiking routes throughout the park for hikers to explore, and they can stay in either a basic mountain hut in the center of the park or a more opulent lodge on its periphery. Kayaking is a fantastic method to see this tiny paradise, as it is adjacent to Lake Tagua Tagua.

Volunteers ought to be proactive and hands-on. There are numerous jobs to be done, including working as a tour guide, maintaining mountain huts and hiking paths, maintaining the information center, working in the forest, and much more.

Because the project is so remote, you should be conscious of how special it is. Sometimes it's unusually quiet and desolate. Only on days off are the closest cities, Puerto Varas and Puerto Montt, accessible by bus, each taking around three hours.

Giornata tipica

The responsibilities involved in this endeavor vary according on the season and weather. There's a lot of service-related work as well as tour guide duties, during the summer months when most visitors arrive. To ensure that hiking paths, footbridges, bridges, and mountain huts are in good shape and that there are no mishaps or problems during the pre-season, everything must be meticulously arranged.

Following the season, there may be construction work to be done, an inventory to be completed, and plans to be made for winter and the upcoming season.

You might find the following chores on your list of things to do:

  • Help at the visitor center
  • Greeting and educating park guests
  • Support for tour guiding
  • Upkeep of the hiking routes
  • Upkeep and sanitation of the mountain huts
  • Foresty work
  • Assisting park rangers
  • Additional duties related to the preservation of nature and wildlife

There are no regular working hours, as is typical while working outside and in the highlands. In Patagonia, the workload and working days are determined by the weather. People typically work longer hours in nice weather and have more relaxed days in bad weather. Depending on the season, the workload is another consideration when volunteering. If we needed to define an example day, work shifts start early in the morning at around 7:30 am and finish in the early afternoon at around 4:30 pm with a long lunch break inbetween. 


Note: There may be variations in the tasks. The quantity of volunteers, the weather, the time of year, the project's present requirements, and self-motivation are some of the variables that affect them. Maybe not every volunteer will take on all of these responsibilities.

Attività del tempo libero

The program is situated in one of Chile's most stunning and pristine regions, more than 1,000 kilometers south of Santiago. The park is only accessible by boat and is situated on Lake Tagua Tagua's southern shore. It takes roughly three hours by car and boat to get to the closest big cities, Puerto Montt and Puerto Varas.

Despite being well-known for its natural beauty throughout Chile, the area is still considered an insider tip because of its remote location and basic infrastructure, which makes this place so unique!

To view the most exquisite pearls, you must hike (you can even ride horses along the main hiking trails) or even find them by boat. A remarkable natural beauty will be bestowed upon everybody who makes the necessary efforts. The terrain, which supports a wide variety of animals and plants, is made up of steeply climbing rocks, tiny lagoons that beckon you to swim in, crystal-clear rivers, and waterfalls amid the ancient forest.

The weather is temperate and frequently rains, even from December to February during the summer. Summertime highs reach approximately 25 degrees. The months of May through August feature the lowest temperatures and the most rainfall, including snowfall.

Sul progetto

Incontra il tuo ospite

South America Inside is an intercultural management agency, founded back in 2003, which specializes in the promotion of programs abroad, language travel and educational programs throughout Latin America.

Since 2007, to enrich the experience of our global-minded clients and to provide them with even more possibilities, South America Inside has been expanding their program offerings throughout South and Central America.

Working together with some of the best language schools in Latin America, South America Inside provides high quality language courses in almost every Latin American country.

Thanks to a professional team of motivated and friendly staff, South America Inside has been very successful over the past several years and have been able to establish an outstanding network of what we call "Insider Contacts." To enrich the experience of their clients and to provide them with more possibilities, South America Inside has been expanding our program offerings throughout Central and South America, in addition to our well-established Chilean programs.

Volunteer Work

Do you dream of staying abroad while doing something positive? Are you looking for a unique experience that will leave a mark on your life? Then a Volunteer Work program in South America or Central America is perfect for you!

With South America Inside you can combine an adventure abroad with social commitment, and create lasting memories in Latin America. Support the protection of endangered species; help a local community construct new homes; give new hope to impoverished children.

The possibilities to lend a hand are diverse, as there are the many places where help is needed. We have classified our volunteer projects in different areas so you can easily find the one (or more!) projects that best match your needs and interests.

Why with us

There are many persuasive reasons that speak in favor of South America Inside when it comes to selecting your perfect provider of language, study and volunteer travel abroad. Following, we have prepared a short summary so that you can get us to know a little better.

Our Insider benefits at a glance:

  Regional Experience
Over one decade (established in 2003) of dedication to language, work and study travel programs in Latin America. Thanks to our long standing work and life experience in the South American continent, we know this region really well. Therefore, we can help and inform you in a professional and competent way.

  Multifaceted Offers
Over time we have developed new programs to offer a wide array of work abroad opportunities to our clients. We have been pioneers in launching new exchange programs, as we have been the first in offering Work & Travel/Working Holiday and Farm Stays in Chile and successfully introduced these programs into the market back in 2005. Since 2012, we are the only agency to offer this type of program in Costa Rica.

  Insider Advice
Despite living in the modern era of the internet, we know that reliable and competent advice is still an important criterion for most of us. At South America Inside, you will find the benefits of an internet provider and an independent travel agency. We will be glad to pass on our extensive knowledge and regional experience.!

  Location
It is difficult to run programs when there is nobody “on the ground” to evaluate existing options and search for new opportunities. So, we are located in Chile, on location, and we know everything that is going on first hand. We know what it is like to live as a foreigner in South America and will be happy to assist you in making your stay unforgettable!

  Independence
South America Inside is an independent provider of language courses, internships, volunteer work, Farm Stays and Work & Travel programs in Latin America. We neither depend financially nor structurally on any other company, language school, association or organization. Therefore, we are able to give personalized information in accordance to your needs and availability.

•  Multilingual Team

Our team is multilingual and international! We speak fluent English, Spanish and German, as well as some French and Portuguese. With our customers, we can communicate in their native language and we avoid misunderstandings with local partners by communicating in Spanish with them. You can be sure that there will be an English-speaking contact person for you before, during, and after your stay.

  Customer Service
Excellent customer service is one of the most important goals for South America Inside, and this is evident with the positive feedback we regularly receive from our many happy clients. Emails are answered within 48 business hours and every client is treated with the same friendliness and expertise.

  Gapless and Accurate Information flow
With South America Inside you will have one and the same contact person before, during and after your trip. With that said, we guarantee a gapless and accurate information flow and you will always be very well informed.

  Approved Program Places
Many of our program places, especially in the area of internships and volunteer work, are designed in the way that they will be recognized by most universities, colleges or academies.
