Campo di volontariato
WATERFALL IN PROVENCE
MONTFERRAT, FRANCIA
Attività principali
Contribute to preserve the local heritage in the heart of Montferrat!
Located in the northeast of the town, the Pierrepont spring has long been a refreshing stop for locals during the hot summer months and a peaceful and beloved part of village life.
By joining this project, you will participate in a concrete and useful mission by contributing to the preservation of local history, while enjoying the beauty and tranquility of rural Provence.
With the aim of restoring the site's hydraulic heritage, an important part of the village's history and life, your project will be to build the water trail:
Creating a path that follows the spring (restoring dry stone walls, creating steps for the path, cleaning the building that houses a very old hydraulic device dating from the 18th century). You will also be invited to collect stories from the inhabitants to retrace the memory of the place and create panels explaining the history of the water trail.
- Reconnect with nature
- Learn traditional construction techniques
- Share unforgettable moments with other volunteers and local residents

You will participate in various collective tasks and prepare meals together, either outdoors or under the small covered area. A budget will be allocated to the coordinators and you will participate in shopping, with a focus on healthy and local products.
Scopri MONTFERRAT
Montferrat (a municipality of around 1,700 inhabitants) is located in the Var department (83) in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Located just 15 km from Draguignan and 5 km from Châteaudouble, the village stands among wooded hills in a preserved natural setting. The Pierrepont site is about a 15-minute walk from the town center.
Your volunteer work will be punctuated by various cultural and nature-based activities: discovering the region and its specialties, hiking, outdoor sports, activities to meet the local population... and much more!
Requisiti
As kayaking will be planned among the leisure activities, please make sure you know how to swim before applying to this project!
Foreigners belonging to the European Union must bring with them a personal EHIC (European Health Insurance Card), and everybody must, in any case, bring their insurance certificate. If health issues arise on the project, volunteers will have to pay for them, and will then be reimbursed once back in their home country.
Organizzatore
This project follows on from last year's. With the friendliness and hospitality of its inhabitants, Montferrat and its many village festivals bring a festive atmosphere to the work camp.
Once again this year, the mayor office wishes to focus on restoring the hydraulic heritage at the Pierrepont site. The municipality's elected officials are delighted to welcome a group of young international volunteers to lead this work camp with Concordia!
