Corporate Volunteering in the Parks of Switzerland
About the event
The parks of Switzerland regularly organize corporate volunteering activities for companies that wish to actively engage their employees in environmental protection. During a volunteering day, your employees carry out important conservation work while also benefiting from a valuable team-building experience. They become acquainted with the park, engage with the local population, and enjoy regional specialties. Qualified guides ensure not only the safety of participants but also an educational experience: they impart new skills and knowledge related to habitats, animals, and plants. Fresh air provides fresh inspiration—companies benefit from enthusiastic and motivated employees who work together for a good cause, have fun, and end the day tired but with a sense of fulfillment.
These activities take place in breathtaking natural and cultural landscapes and meet the high sustainability standards of the Swiss parks. The following parks offer corporate volunteering opportunities: Parc Chasseral, Jurapark Aargau, Regional Nature Park Schaffhausen, Gantrisch Nature Park, Diemtigtal Nature Park, UNESCO Biosphere Entlebuch, Pfyn-Finges Nature Park, Binntal Landscape Park, Beverin Nature Park, Parc Ela, and Biosfera Val Müstair.
