70 opportunities for climate-friendly adventures through the Alps
Travelling with a clear conscience and a strong sense of community: the project YOALIN is launching its next round in 2026 and is giving away 70 tickets for a climate-friendly trip through the Alps. Networking is also a key focus – winners will become part of an active community and will be invited to events in various Alpine countries. Applications are open until 7th of June!
Transport is responsible for around 30 per cent of CO₂ emissions in the Alpine region. The YOALIN ticket offers a practical solution for climate-friendly travel: public transport allows you to explore the mountain regions in an eco-friendly way – adventure included. Young adults aged between 18 and 27 can submit their applications at www.yoalin.org until 7th of June 2026.
More than just a ticket: the community benefit
The community spirit runs through the entire project: the winners are invited to the official launch event in Liechtenstein in July to make travel plans and forge friendships. Former participants act as ‘ambassadors’, providing newcomers with tips and serving as local guides at the meet-ups in the various Alpine countries. The project website also features special itineraries and insider tips from the community. In addition to sustainable travel in the Alps, this edition focuses on ecological connectivity and biodiversity. Through challenges and practical tips, travellers are encouraged to engage actively with these topics.
YOALIN is an initiative of CIPRA and the CIPRA Youth Advisory Council (CYC) and is supported by the Alpine Convention and EUSALP Working Group 7. It is funded by two contracting parties to the Alpine Convention – Austria and Germany – the Lebenswertes Liechtenstein Foundation, and through the Erasmus+ project “Alpine Youth on the Move”.
