Campo di volontariato
Living and working in the middle of the North German forest!
Süderlügum, GERMANIA
Attività principali
Nature conservation and forest maintenance in beautiful surroundings, plus relaxation on the North Sea beach!
You can experience both at this camp in northern Germany. You will work alongside volunteers from all over the world in the forests and nature reserves surrounding the youth forest hostel where you will be staying.
Your tasks will include creating path boundaries and repairing erosion damage, cutting and removing grass and unwanted plants in open land biotopes and reforested windthrow areas, removing invasive late-flowering black cherry trees from forest areas, clearing hiking trails and clearing ditches.
Some of the work can be very strenuous and monotonous. (Note: The actual work to be carried out may differ from that described here.)
During your work, you will also learn a lot about the protection of forests and rare habitats, such as inland dunes, in theory and practice. You will also learn how nature reserves and landscape conservation areas can be developed in a way that is gentle on the environment, so that people can enjoy the beautiful natural surroundings in a better and more informative way.
