💼 What the programme involves

Homberg (Efze) is a wonderful, historical, fairy-tale factory town and an important Reformation town. High above the rooftops of the town lies the “Hohenburg”, the ruins of a castle from the Middle Ages, with a great view over the town and a castle restaurant. This year you will be supporting numerous conservation activities around town. You will lay down new premium hiking trails through the beautiful landscape, by cutting free the paths, working on the signposting as well as building benches and tables. You will work together with your friendly instructors, who will explain the work to you in more detail. The local community is looking forward to meeting you and working with you! There is an additional administration fee of 50 € for participants who are not from Germany.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be staying in a great new youth centre. The group will prepare and cook meals together.

📍 About the location

Homberg (Efze) is a very lovely historical town with cafes, pubs and restaurants. When the weather is nice you can use the local outdoor swimming pool for free. You will receive a tour of the town and there are also several local events taking place during your stay, including a wine festival on the first weekend of August which you could visit. Nature lovers can visit a nearby wildlife park or go hiking. The larger cities of Kassel, Marburg and Frankfurt are not too far away – you could take a day-trip to visit them at the weekends.
