📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Todtmoos is happy to invite its second international workcamp this year! The town is situated in the very south of the Black Forest, in a rural area of forests and mountains. Here, you will have two projects: Taking care of the local hiking trails as well as building a stone labyrinth. The second task will be instructed by a local association that is concerned about the Celtic & Druidic culture and traditions. Labyrinths were an important part in spiritual rituals of the Celts and they are still used by alternative practitioners in their therapeutic work. The members of the association will be happy to show you how they use it and how you can use its energy for yourself.
💼 What the programme involves
To build the labyrinth, you will collect suitable stones out of the local river, and then set them up in the right order in the park of Todtmoos: The labyrinth is supposed to have a diameter of twelve meters! Your second task will be the maintenance of local hiking trails. Bushes need to be cut, weed needs to be removed. Eventually, further (similar) tasks might be added – be prepared to lend a helping hand where it is needed!
🏠 Accommodation on site
The group will stay in the local school where you will find a gorgeous kitchen, toilets and plenty of living-space. Showers are available in the local gym which is only 200m away.
📍 About the location
Todtmoos is a small and cosy spa town in the Black Forest. Due to its location about 820m above sea level, it is a tourist attraction in the winter, offering the possibility to go skiing or attend the annual dog-sled race. In the summer months, this beautiful, mountainous area provides many opportunities to go hiking, biking or to try out the high ropes course. The Feldberg (1493m), the highest German mountain excluding the Alpes, is not far and offers a breath-taking view of the area.
