Life at Alpe Pianello is supported through shared contributions. The standard cost for staying is €750 per month, which covers food, accommodation, and community life for those who prefer not to engage in work exchange.
For those who wish to contribute time, skills, and energy, the cost scales down depending on your level of work exchange and involvement. Together we find a balance that feels fair, transparent, and sustainable for both you and the community.
We also welcome people who bring their own ideas or projects—whether related to nature, well-being, arts, or community development. In these cases, we collaborate to find creative solutions that integrate your initiative into the life of Pianello.
