Himalaya volunteer projects

Explore volunteer opportunities that let you live, see, and experience the beauty of the Himalayas. Scroll down to find opportunities to get involved.

Travel in the Himalayas

The Himalayas are home to the world’s tallest mountains and some of the most beautiful scenery. Countries like Nepal, Tibet, Ladakh, and Bhutan offer amazing experiences and rich cultures to explore. You can trek through wild valleys, reach high mountain peaks, and connect with local people who have lived there for thousands of years.

Volunteering here gives you a chance to learn about the region’s traditions and Buddhism, which plays a big role in daily life.

Things to do in the Himalayas

While volunteering, you can:

  • Visit monasteries and temples to see ancient rituals.
  • Attend religious festivals full of colour and meaning.
  • Listen to monks chanting prayers in peaceful surroundings.
  • You can visit cities like Kathmandu or more remote places like Lhasa.
  • Everywhere, you will experience the calm and wisdom of Buddhism, not just as a religion but as a way of life.
How this page works

This page will show you volunteer opportunities in the Himalayas. More projects will be added over time. Click the links to learn more about each project and contact the organizers directly.


Volunteer projects near the Himalayas 🏔️🏔️


Around the Himalayas, which encompass the highest and most spectacular mountains on Earth, there are countries of breathtaking beauty, inhabited by populations whose spirituality has no equal.

Nepal, Tibet, Ladakh and Bhutan, offer itineraries off the beaten track that allow you to get to know the culture and the ancient traditions of these mysterious areas.

You can trek to the “roofs of the world” through unknown and wild valleys, at the foot of mountains up to 8000 metres high. Through volunteering, you can experience a different and exciting way to get in touch with the people who have lived here for thousands of years. Still tenaciously preserving their customs and cultivating the most authentic and profound Buddhism.

Some things you can do in the Himalayas
  • Visiting monasteries and temples,
  • attending religious festivals,
  • listening to the prayers of monks wrapped in clouds of incense,

They are all extraordinary and unforgettable experiences. The cities are also full of charm: from Kathmandu, a Unesco heritage site, to Lhasa with its Potala, residence of the Dalai Lama. From Leh, the capital of Ladakh, to Thimphu with its monasteries and dzongs. In the cities as well as in the smaller towns and villages, Buddhism permeates everything and identifies each person. Because here Buddhism is not just a religion, but a philosophy of life. And this is the most exciting aspect of a trip to the Himalayan region.
