Work:
This workcamp focuses on protecting the local environment, especially in areas affected by beaver activities. The growing beaver population in Hüfingen is expanding into populated areas, creating challenges for their survival. One of the goals of your contribution will be to help guide them toward forested areas and away from busy streets, houses, and other potential dangers.
You will work closely with local conservation groups and environmental experts to implement protective measures for trees and landscapes. Together you will support both the beavers and the natural world around us!
Your tasks will include:
• Protecting trees along Berg, Mühlkanal, and Steinerbächle from beaver damage using mesh wire and wooden posts;
• Applying protective coatings (Wöbra) to smaller trees;
• Cleaning up litter along nature paths;
• Potentially planting container trees such as alder, willow, poplar, birch, and elm;
• Receiving guidance from the regional beaver expert and other environmental specialists.
• This is a great opportunity to learn about nature conservation, biodiversity, and local wildlife while making a real impact!
Accomodation and food
You will be staying at the Tennisheim Hüfingen (Tennis Association), where you will have access to cooking facilities, sleeping arrangements, and sanitary amenities. There are separate showers, bathrooms, and changing rooms for all genders. The group will share a large room with camp beds for sleeping, creating a cozy and communal atmosphere.
There’s an outdoor area ideal for social activities, and everyone will take turns cooking meals together. Basic kitchen supplies and utensils are provided. Just bring your sleeping bag and any personal essentials you may need.
