Today we combine outdoor education for school groups with resort offerings for a unique environment. Join our vibrant community of outdoor enthusiasts, living and working in an outdoor adventure seeker and nature-lover’s paradise! Most of our staff live on site and pay between $12 and $15 per day for expenses. Our food is wonderful - from scratch, using many local ingredients; our staff accommodation simple and rustic. Come learn, share and experience!

We offer a healthy and respectful work environment, access to countless outdoor activities and incredible people.
