📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
During the first two weeks you will be working on the heights of Vialas by constructing a section of a new hiking trail. This part is furrowed by runoff and should be reshaped. You will be responsible for the clearing of this new section and you will draw a steady path with the stones of the path. The last week of the project is dedicated to the irrigation canal of the old silver-lead mine. You will work on the layout of the canal in order to open it to the public as a part of the future mine trail.
🏠 Accommodation on site
The first two weeks you will be in a camp built for this project. You will sleep in tents, and cooking will be done in a large tent set for this purpose. A sanitary block with solar showers and dry toilets will be installed. A river is close to the place of the camp, for those of you who like it fresh!
The journeys will be mostly on foot, but the materials, water and all other charges shall be brought by car near to the camp. For the last week, as the canal is located near the village, you will stay in the school building of Vialas, that has conventional toilets, dormitories and a communal kitchen .
