Conservation for the landscape, water and animals - Haseldorf

You will be working with a lot of water in this camp, since the water here in the Haseldorf marsh on the river Elbe, north-west of Hamburg, has formed the landscape and continues to do so. In order to preserve this beautiful landscape, you will be completing various conservation tasks: taking care of an orchid meadow in the moor, preserving certain biotopes in a birding station, keeping the sandy and heath areas open in a charming dune landscape, upon which bird cherries and other small bushes will be picked. Highlights of this camp will be to spend time on a wonderful island on the river Elbe, upon which you will be camping in tents. Physically demanding, but extremely useful work with a high fun factor await you on this project. You will be getting dirty and wet from working, so it is best to bring your own working clothes and wellington boots with you. Some worksites (with a journey of up to 10km) can only be reached by bike, which will be provided for you when you arrive. http://elbmarschenhaus.de
