The Experience

We are a family-run restaurant located in a truly magical place: right in front of the majestic Osorno Volcano, across the Petrohué River and surrounded by forests, mountains and pure nature. Here you’re not just volunteering: you come to experience something. We are looking for volunteers who want to disconnect from the noise, enjoy country life, and be part of a warm, relaxed and friendly team. 🌿🤝

It was an amazing experience!! A great place for a first volunteering experience. From the first day Ale and his family take care to ensure you are comfortable and feel safe. The tasks are explained clearly and the schedules are very flexible so that you can have time to get to know the surroundings and go out for a walk. The place is absolutely incredible and the surrounding nature is stunning.
It is a refuge of great tranquility and getting to know through a family of such caring people was really a privilege, besides that it is very beautiful to see how as a family they take care of the project.

Our experience here was unforgettable! From the first day, Alejandro and his family welcomed us with so much warmth that we truly felt part of the home. The meals together, the conversations, and the cozy moments in front of the fireplace marked our stay. The environment is like a peaceful retreat. Surrounded by incredible nature, the view of the volcano is splendid. We did the necessary activities around the property, fished, and dove headfirst into Chilean cuisine and culture. Everything was very calm and with tasks well explained. We extend our special thanks to you.

It was an incredible experience from start to finish.
The place is beautiful, but what stood out the most were the people and the conversations. I was welcomed with a lot of warmth and felt like part of the family.
I loved boating on the lake and the river, fishing, and taking in a simply wonderful landscape. I also had the opportunity to learn a bit more about Chilean culture and I must give special praise to the host: his sazón is amazing! Each meal was prepared with a lot of care and was delicious.
I arrived as a volunteer and left with friends who will be forever in my heart.
Thank you for everything.

The host is located on the shores of a beautiful lake surrounded by volcanoes and mountains. Alejandro and his family welcomed us with excellent accommodation and in an autonomous manner. The workers were fun and always together. There was time for hiking, barbecues, sailing, sharing as a family, etc. On a personal level we formed friendships with Alejandro and his family. We shared beautiful moments with them. They are cheerful, gentle, and affectionate people, and I can say with certainty that it was one of the best experiences on W.P.! We will carry them in our hearts.
