Organizzatore
The charm of Haanja Uplands in South Estonia lies in its lovely hilly landscape, winding roads and numerous lakes. Most of its ancient villages, peculiar dialect, handicrafts and customs have been preserved until today. The whole area, called Vorumaa, is an area of outstanding beauty. It is famous for its diverse and very well preserved nature. Untouched forests with rich wildlife, deep valleys and picturesque hills, 170 small lakes with extremely clean water, streams and fast rivers with sand caves in their steep banks - you can find everything there. With the support of the state and local authorities the eco- and farm sustainable tourism has been developed in this area. Besides promoting the environmental tourism, this initiative supports rural development which is very important issue for Estonia. Association of Farm Tourism launched several projects and Kiidi Farm, where the camp takes place, is one of them. This is one of the oldest EstYES local partners, who had hosted more than 40 camps and group projects with EstYES for the last 25 years. More information on Kiidi Farm is on site www.kiidi.ee
