Program Details
This program combines physical activity and conditioning in nature with environmental care. We create a space where staying active in the mountains has a direct and positive impact on the conservation of the forest and on community life.
Activities & Shift
The main tasks consist of traversing the mountain, collecting wood from fallen or dry trees, clearing paths, and organizing the wood. We will work between 4 and 5 hours per day (usually in the morning to take advantage of the cooler hours), with weekends and afternoons free to enjoy the surroundings.
Rules
Having good physical condition is essential, enthusiasm for outdoor work, and suitable clothing and footwear for the mountains. Responsibility in handling and transporting branches and firewood is required, as is teamwork and full respect for the natural environment and for the people you share your stay with.
