My stay at the farm was fantastic! Anna is super welcoming and an amazing cook. I loved experiencing Austrian food through her cooking and fresh, organic ingredients. Everyone was kind and easygoing, and the work was flexible depending on your needs and preferences. I also had a private room and bathroom, which was a lovely surprise! The only thing I'd mention is that, as a vegetarian, I sometimes felt sad knowing that some of the animals I cared for would eventually be eaten. Overall, a lovely experience!

The farm is nice and the work hours are very flexible. This makes it easy to plan your freetime when staying here. The host family are easygoing and fun. I recommend this work experience if you are willing to work and you are a social person.

Experience of a lifetime - a perfect contrast to the city life. You get to really live as an Austrian on a real farm and it makes you appreciate how much farmers do for the world.
Very easy tasks, not taking much time at all. Friendly hosts and kids. Train is 10 minute walk away, they also have bicycles. Very healthy food, healthy lifestyle with minimal technology. The hosts attempt to live clean with as little waste as possible. Easy to reach famous Austrian cities (Innsbruck, Hallstatt, Salzburg) by train (buying train tickets in advance saves a lot of money!)
100% worth it experience.

Truly a great experience! A great time with real Austrian food and culture! Great family and parents to talk to about traveling, hiking, life, etc. Great communication, comfortable living situation, and flexible work schedule. They provided recommendations for hikes, trains, travels, etc. for the area. Would definitely recommend to other travelers if you want a rural quiet life, eating and learning about Upper Austrian farming life!

We had a great 3-month stay with Anna and Leo. They are kind, helpful and flexible with days off, also helping with rides whenever possible. We felt very welcomed and would definitely recommend this host!

Anna and Leo are very kind, helpful, and really care about making sure you have a good time.
They are flexible with days off and helped us with rides whenever possible. Anna also lent me her snowboard boots and board, which was amazing since one of my goals was to snowboard.
The bikes they provide for volunteers are really good, and you can easily explore the surroundings. The train station is a 10-minute walk from the farm, and from there you can easily visit bigger Austrian cities.
Overall, we felt very welcomed and would definitely recommend this host.

Anna and Leo were the perfect hosts! From the first day they made sure you knew you could make yourself at home. It was super easy to take days off and they were super close to a train station! I would recommend them over and over again! I was very lucky to experience this place as a first time Worldpacker!

Unfortunately, our experience at the farm was very disappointing. Anna shouted at us over small mistakes, like leaving work clothes in the wrong place or opening a jar of honey we apparently weren’t supposed to use, even though these things were never been explained.
They often expect you to know things without explaining them, and asking questions can feel like you’re bothering them. We were also suddenly asked to leave before our agreed date, forcing us to change our plans and spend + 700€ extra. I strongly recommend booking flexible or refundable tickets. I don’t recommend this Farm.

My time with Ana and her family was great!
The tasks were easy and when I got bored there was always something else to do in the farm.
The surroundings are just incredible and moving from the farm is super easy since you can always use the bikes or go walking until the train station.
Would really recommend on meeting them!

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
