Travail

Forest preservation and habitat care in a beautiful environment and relaxing at the beach! That's what you get in this camp in the North of Germany close to the border to Danemark. You will work in the forest and nature reservation surrounding the hostel where you stay, together with volunteers from all over the world. Your tasks will include creating path boundaries and removing erosion damage, installing information boards, cutting and removing grass and unwanted plants in the reforested windthrow areas. Some of the work can be very strenuous and monotonous. (Note: The actual work to be carried out may differ from that described here). Through all this, you will learn a lot about forest protection and protecting rare habitats, in theory and practice. You will also get to know, how nature conservation areas can be made accessible for tourism without damaging them, in order to enable people to use the beautiful nature in an informed and more careful manner.
