💼 What the programme involves

In collaboration with the employees of the Wahnbach reservoir management authority, you will be undertaking various conservation projects around the reservoir. Firstly, the touch-me-not around the tributaries must be removed, to avoid it driving out other local plant species. Secondly, you'll be doing maintenance work across the meadows, in order to help rare species of plants to flourish there. You’ll also be building birdhouses and repairing the barriers all around the Wahnbach reservoir. If there's time, you'll be checking over the sign posts along nearby paths and renewing them if necessary. In this camp you can learn many things about the supply of drinking water and the prevention of water pollution in Germany.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You'll be staying in an idyllic but remote scouts’ house in rooms with several beds. You will prepare and cook your own meals together in groups.

📍 About the location

The camp is in a very nice region of Germany: rural, but also with big cities like Cologne, Bonn and Düsseldorf all nearby. It's therefore very easy to go on many different day trips during the camp. In the town of Much (10km away) there is an outdoor swimming pool, and the scouts’ house has large outside grounds with a camp-fire area. Other cities along the river Rhein include Koblenz and Mainz.
