📍 About the location
DobogEk is the highest point in the VisegrEUd mountains, 699 meters. This is a place of ancient Hungarians and a traditional hike, ski and climatic health resort. Leisure activity opportunities will be provided by the local partner: hiking, presentations, yoga, meditation.During the camp the volunteers wonaeurot have the possibility to visit Budapest as the bus connections are quite rare. Therefore we invite volunteers to this camp who are ready for the adventure to live in a yurt and enjoy the calm and peaceful atmosphere close to the nature. (Although during the day the place can be pretty busy because of the hikers and tourists.)
