Volunteers are an integral part of our operations, and we are always looking for enthusiastic and reliable people to join our ACTIVE team. There are several ways to help with our year-round outdoor recreation programs for free.
We are looking for volunteers to help us organize outdoor events:
Hiking around Vienna
Vienna’s city hiking trails span over 240 kilometers through the scenic Vienna Woods and local recreation areas. These well-marked trails are easily accessible by public transport, making them perfect for group outings. Whether you want to plan a relaxed nature walk or a more challenging adventure, you’ll have the opportunity to bring people together, promote an active lifestyle, and explore Vienna’s beautiful outdoor spaces—all while gaining valuable leadership experience!
Bringing yoga and pilates to the parks in parks
With warmer weather here, it’s the perfect time to bring people together for outdoor yoga, Pilates, and Tai Chi in Vienna’s beautiful riverside spots and city parks! As a volunteer, you can help us organize free, dynamic workouts that are open to all experience levels. Whether you’re leading a session or simply supporting the event, you’ll play a key role in promoting movement, well-being, and community. Join us and help keep Austria ACTIVE!
Cycling tours
Cycling is one of the most popular and accessible ways to explore Vienna, with well-maintained bike paths and scenic routes throughout the city and beyond. As a volunteer, you can organize leisurely cycling tours, making it easy for people of all fitness levels to join. Whether it’s a relaxed ride through Vienna’s parks or an exploration of the surrounding areas, you’ll help promote an active lifestyle, sustainable mobility, and a sense of community on two wheels!
Climbing, bouldering or Via Ferrata
Vienna offers fantastic opportunities for climbing and bouldering, whether indoors at modern gyms or outdoors on natural rock formations. As a volunteer, you can help organize climbing meetups, bouldering sessions, or guided Via Ferrata trips, creating a welcoming space for all skill levels.
Environmental activities
Volunteers at ACTIVE Austria can also take part in environmental activities to help protect and preserve nature while staying active outdoors! You can organize clean-up hikes, removing litter from Vienna’s parks, riversides, and hiking trails, or take part in tree-planting initiatives to support local biodiversity. Help raise awareness by leading eco-workshops or promoting sustainable outdoor practices during our events.
