Il campo di Swimtrekking a Monte Argentario prevede l’attività del nuoto esplorativo lungo le meravigliose coste dell'Argentario. I campi Swimtrekking si pongono l’obiettivo di proporre un’attività in mare che, attraverso l’escursionismo e l’esplorazione, consenta ai partecipanti di maturare un’esperienza autentica in cui confrontarsi sulle tematiche della tutela e della salvaguardia dell’ambiente marino, anche e soprattutto attraverso la conoscenza della flora e della fauna. Gli esploratori a nuoto saranno impegnati nel monitoraggio delle zone costiere e dei fondali marini. I responsabili dell’associazione, nelle vesti di istruttori e guide qualificate, trasmetteranno le indagini effettuate sul campo ai siti web di riferimento e agli enti addetti a tale supervisione. Ad esempio, i partecipanti alimenteranno il famoso sistema di monitoraggio Meteomeduse, in cui si riporteranno le osservazioni sulla presenza, l’abbondanza, e l’identità specifica delle meduse rilevate
Lavoro
I volontari rimuoveranno i rifiuti dai fondali e da tratti di costa e li trasporteranno a riva. Al termine delle attività in acqua si progetteranno e realizzeranno delle opere artistiche, utilizzando solo i materiali recuperati dal mare e dalle coste. Ispirandosi al progetto Waste-land dell’artista brasiliano Vik Muniz, i rifiuti saranno assemblati per riprodurre una o più foto fatte dai volontari che rappresentino il campo. La riproduzione sarà poi fotografata dall’alto. Le opere verranno poi distrutte e smaltite e, ove possibile, differenziate. I volontari si occuperanno inoltre dell’attività di Marine and beach litter indagando sulla quantità e tipologia di rifiuti raccolti sulle spiagge raggiunte durante il campo al fine di contribuire alla Direttiva europea sulla Marine Strategy. Tutte le attività del campo, il lavoro in mare e il lavoro artistico saranno documentate con una macchina fotografica compatta scafandrata messa a disposizione dall’organizzazione insieme a un computer. A fine campo sarà realizzato un video con tutti i contenuti delle attività svolte e consegnato ai partecipanti (se muniti di penna USB). Altro aspetto fondamentale del campo sarà il censimento di specie marine e in particolare delle meduse. Il Consorzio Nazionale Interuniversitario (CONISMA), proseguirà infatti la collaborazione con Swimtrekking per un progetto di Scienze dei Cittadini (Citizen Science) estendendo per il 2022 la raccolta di informazioni su ogni avvistamento di meduse, specie non-indigene diurne che vivono nei primi 5-10 m di profondità, e sulla spazzatura marina. I volontari esploreranno e monitoreranno i fondali marini e i tratti costieri contribuendo alla raccolta dati sulle Meduse e recupereranno nel mare e lungo la costa nel corso dell’attività, i rifiuti che saranno poi utilizzati per la realizzazione di opere artistiche che saranno fotografate, catalogate (Beach Litter), distrutte, smaltite e, ove possibile, differenziate. I volontari saranno di volta in volta addestrati dai responsabili dell'associazione a riportare – su apposite schede - le osservazioni sulla presenza, abbondanza, e identità specifica di meduse rilevate durante le escursioni in mare. A fine campo le informazioni raccolte saranno inviate al Consorzio Nazionale Interuniversitario (CONISMA).
Luogo
L'Argentario è uno splendido promontorio circondato dal mare e collegato alla costa dai tomboli della Giannella, della Feniglia, e da un istmo artificiale che corrisponde alla diga di Orbetello. Sull'Argentario si affacciano sul mare due importanti e frequentate località turistiche: Porto Santo Stefano e Porto Ercole. La costa dell'Argentario, bagnata da un mare trasparente e cristallino, presenta alte scogliere in alternanza a suggestive calette e spiagge selvagge ed isolate che saranno raggiunte a nuoto durante le attività di Swimtrekking. La costa molto irregolare offrirà agli Swimtrekkers innumerevoli punti di immersioni differenti l'uno dall'altro: pareti, grotte, secche e relitti in un mare ricco di vita.
Attività
formative
I volontari, adeguatamente formati per l’osservazione delle meduse, avranno il compito di censire, catalogare e studiare i comportamenti delle meduse incontrate durante le attività di esplorazione in mare lungo le coste. I volontari seguiranno inoltre le direttive tema del progetto marine and beach litter per la conservazione dell'ambiente naturalistico.
Alloggio
L’Argentario Camping Village, situato a pochi metri dal mare, gode di un’eccellente posizione all’ombra dell’antica pineta di Giannella di fronte alle isole di Giannutri, Giglio e Montecristo. Il Villaggio è molto confortevole e dotato di tutti i servizi risulta essere una delle strutture ricettive più apprezzate di questo tratto di costa toscana. I volontari dormiranno in tende fornite dalla ASD Swimtrekking e dovranno munirsi di sacco a pelo e un materassino. I bagni e le docce calde sono in condivisione con gli altri campeggiatori e si trovano non distanti dalle piazzole delle tende. Per quanto riguarda i pasti, la prima colazione sarà servita presso il Bar del Villaggio. Per il pranzo sarà preparato un pasto al sacco che verrà riposto nei barkini. La cena sarà servita presso il ristorante del Camping. Tutti coloro con problemi di intolleranze o con diverse abitudini alimentari (vegetariani, vegani ecc.) su richiesta, potranno avere dei menù personalizzati.
Requisiti e
materiali
Fondamentale che tutti i volontari sappiano nuotare i due stili principali: lo stile libero e lo stile dorso. Specifichiamo inoltre che non sono assolutamente importanti i tempi di percorrenza e la tecnica individuale ma una certa abitudine all’attività fisica. Si richiede quindi una certa consuetudine con l’attività sportiva di qualsiasi genere sia pur blanda.

Organizzatore
La ASD Swimtrekking è una associazione sportiva dilettantistica affiliata alla UISP che da 27 anni organizza il trekking a nuoto in varie località del Mar Mediterraneo e del mondo.
L’attività dello Swimtrekking nasce con l’intento di esplorare e monitorare l’ambiente marino e si sostanzia nella realizzazione di corsi e stage, sia in piscina che in mare, le cui tematiche spaziano dalla tecnica dello Swimtrekking e dell’allenamento agli aspetti teorici e pratici della sicurezza in mare, della conoscenza della flora e della fauna, della tutela e salvaguardia dell'habitat marino, dello studio e della conoscenza dei venti, delle correnti e delle condizioni meteo-marine esclusivamente in funzione dell’attività stessa che porta. Le attività Swimtrekking coinvolgono bambini, adolescenti, famiglie, adulti e diversamente abili e seguono un progetto ambientale e sociale condotto da un team di educatori e tecnici del settore.
E’ un campo nazionale & internazionale che vedrà la partecipazione di volontari italiani e volontari provenienti da altri paesi. Un'occasione unica di incontro, condivisione, amicizia.
ll Campo è dedicato alla prevenzione del dissesto idrogeologico e alla tutela del territorio. Oltre alle azioni di ripristino ambientale, affiancando i Volontari del gruppo AIB PC (Anti Incendi Boschivi e Protezione Civile), sono previste uscite e approfondimenti del territorio dell'AMI (Anfiteratro Morenico d'Ivrea) e momenti di confronto e di riflessione sui temi dell'economia solidale, della filiera del cibo, dell'importanza di una corretta raccolta differenziata. Le attività di socializzazione sono volte anche all'inclusione di giovani diversamente abili.

I campi si svolgono nella spiaggia dell’Isola dei Conigli, zona A di Riserva Naturale e sito di deposizione della tartaruga marina Caretta caretta. I campi hanno una duplice finalità: contribuire alla tutela della spiaggia, intensamente frequentata a fini balneari, in modo da garantire le condizioni ambientali idonee all’ovodeposizione di Caretta caretta, controllando l’impatto antropico sul sito; sorvegliare e proteggere i nidi di Caretta caretta, dalla deposizione alla schiusa. Questi campi sono una grande occasione per quanti, appassionati della natura, vogliono prendersene cura svolgendo attività utili ed entusiasmanti, in uno dei luoghi più belli di Lampedusa e del Mediterraneo, meritevole di essere salvaguardato per la sua bellezza e per la sua grande importanza naturalistica.
Lavoro
Il campo prevede lo svolgimento di turni giornalieri di 6-7 ore e turni notturni di 8–10 ore. I turni giornalieri sono finalizzati al controllo della balneazione, mediante sorveglianza ed attività di informazione e sensibilizzazione dei bagnanti, in modo da far rispettare i regolamenti vigenti nella riserva. Dalle 8 alle 20.00 i volontari si alterneranno per coprire due postazioni fisse: una all'ingresso della Riserva e una sulla spiaggia. All'ingresso, i volontari forniranno informazioni e materiali divulgativi ai visitatori e faranno in modo che attrezzi ed oggetti, dei quali è vietato l’ingresso o l’uso nella Riserva, siano depositati prima di accedere in Riserva. In spiaggia, i volontari sorveglieranno gli eventuali nidi deposti, saranno punto di riferimento per quanti vogliono conoscere la biologia riproduttiva di Caretta caretta e svolgeranno attività di sensibilizzazione per orientare la fruizione della spiaggia verso forme compatibili con l’importanza del sito (inviteranno al rispetto delle norme comportamentali da osservare, svolgeranno piccoli interventi di pulizia della spiaggia, ecc.). I volontari, inoltre, collaboreranno nelle attività di rilevamento dei dati sulla fruizione e saranno di sostegno agli operatori della riserva per il rilevamento dei dati sui nidi di tartaruga e sui piccoli. I turni notturni si svolgeranno presso la struttura ubicata all'ingresso della riserva e sono finalizzati ad impedire l’accesso in spiaggia di eventuali visitatori al di fuori dell'orario di fruizione, che potrebbero pregiudicare gli eventi di nidificazione della tartaruga. I volontari parteciperanno anche alle attività di salvaguardia e sorveglianza (diurna e notturna) di eventuali nidi deposti in altre spiagge dell'isola che rientrano nelle competenze dell'Ente Gestore della Riserva.

La rete sentieristica delle Cinqueterre è certamente un fattore attraente per i turisti che visitano il territorio del Parco; rappresenta, tuttavia, un sistema fragile.
Nelle indagine svolte grazie ai campi di volontariato di Legambiente nel 2017, 2018 e 2019 sulla conoscenza e la percezione del rischio correlato ai fenomeni idrogeologici da parte dei turisti, è emerso che una bassa percentuale di escursionisti mette in atto pratiche corrette per attenuare il rischio.
Finalità del progetto “Con_Tatto nel Parco” è aumentare la consapevolezza di turisti e popolazione locale e far crescere la loro coscienza ambientale, rispetto agli impatti dell’azione umana sugli ecosistemi, garantendo la possibilità di fruizione di un territorio e di un patrimonio di grande pregio, salvaguardando il patrimonio naturale e le attività identitarie della comunità locale.
Lavoro
i volontari saranno impegnati a garantire la propria presenza nei punti informativi, incontrare e intercettare i turisti per fornire informazioni utile alla corretta fruizione in sicurezza della rete sentieristica del Parco. Inoltre saranno impegnati in attività di ripristino e pulizia di alcuni sentieri del Parco, previo sopralluogo con i tecnici stessi dell'Ente e in accordo con gli organi di Protezione Civile locali.
Una ulteriore e importante attività sarà raccogliere informazioni tramite la distribuzione a turisti e visitatori di una indagine/questionario bilingue specifica ed elaborata in collaborazione con l’Ente Parco sulla somministrazione, i consumi e il gradimento dei prodotti locali. Turisti e visitatori sono spesso stranieri, è quindi richiesto un livello minimo di Inglese.
