The Booking Process
Once GVI receives your application form, one of our experienced regional coordinators will give you a call to find out if you have any further questions, or simply want to find out more about volunteering. All GVI staff regularly visit the project sites, and have volunteered and travelled themselves, so have an in-depth knowledge and boundless enthusiasm that ensures your application process runs smoothly and efficiently.
Arrival And Departure Information
The summit team will meet on the first day of the trek at 09:00 AM at 'Refugio Patagonia' in San Carlos de Bariloche, Rio Negro. After being welcomed by the GVI staff, the team will transfer to the training camp, just outside of Bariloche, to start the preparation for the Tronador trek.
Volunteers can either fly into Santiago de Chile in Chile (SCL) or Buenos Aires in Argentina (EZE) and then take either a flight or bus down to San Carlos de Bariloche (BRC).
