🏢 About the local organisation
The commune of Ceilhes and Rocozels welcomes us to its village. The CCAS du Territoire Languedoc is our partner to facilitate a meeting between twelve young French and our twelve young internationals.

*** French version at the end of the description ***
We propose you to come and build a hiking trail in the heart of nature! The project is carried out in partnership with a youth educational service which will come with a dozen of young French participants to the workcamp.
The intervention consists in clearing, cleaning and enhancing the footpaths allowing the people to walk around and discover the exceptional landscapes that the site offers.
Beyond the work, the aim of the workcamp is to organize the meeting between the two groups of participants and with the inhabitants.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Camping in the village of Ceilhes and Rocozels. Sleeping in tents in pairs (bring your own floor mat and sleeping bag). We have a big tent for collective life and all the necessary equipment. You will share the various collective tasks, including meal preparation, on a rotating basis. We will use healthy and local products. For specific diets, please let us know before the workcamp.
