Arbejde

The aim of this workcamp is to preserve the natural reserve area surrounding called "Fonts del Río Algar." More concretely, the work will be mainly dedicated to parks and gardens maintenance or “arboretum”: removing the over-grown grass, weeding some parts of the grasslands and the edge of the woods, maintaining footpaths. Volunteers will also take part in the clean-up of some areas of the reserve where building waste has been found, and if time allows it, they will carry out some painting works around the centre.

There will be other additional tasks to change the daily routine of the volunteers. Volunteers might participate in projects using recycled materials, such as sculptures, murals, mosaics, crafts, artistic activities, or other initiatives requested by the local town hall. Also, here may be a day of social work with the youngsters of the town in the local youth center, depending on availability and planning.

Kost og logi

In a small rural house with basic conditions, some kilometres away from the village centre, with 2 different rooms. No need to bring a mattress but bring lower sheets and a summer sleeping bag are necessary. The centre is equipped with showers and WC.

The food is provided by our campleaders and the volunteers will be cooking in groups by the guidance of our campleader.

Please keep in mind that during the summer, weather conditions may not be optimal due to the high temperatures.

Beliggenhed og fritid

The municipality is located in the province of Alicante, in the northern part of the Marina Baixa region, 10 km from the coast and 42 km from the city of Alicante.

Algar Waterfalls at only 15 km from Benidorm and 3 km from the center of Callosa. This area was declared a Wetland protected by the Valencian Government. It is a park about the importance of water as an environmental resource, economical and cultural. The visit is a route through a circuit of 1.5 km in length along, where you can walk through the bed of the river Algar, see the spectacular waterfalls and the numerous sources, the "tolls" (pools of water) where you can take refreshing swims in crystal clear water, the old dam, the imposing century-old canal and ditches still in use.

Apart from the Waterfalls, there are other interesting sites in Callosa like the cultural heritage of the town, old narrow streets in the center. Also, there are several beautiful hiking routes around Callosa. One of the most spectacular places is El Fort de Bèrnia.

Arrangeret af

Rejsevejledning til mødested

Arrivals area holding a sign that reads: "DE AMICITIA VOLUNTEERS." Please note: The meeting time could be slightly delayed, but not later than 6:30–7:00 PM. Please inform us if there is any delay. If needed, the driver will contact you using the phone number you provided. A minibus will transport all volunteers directly to the workcamp site in Callosa d’en Sarrià (approx. 1 hour). Upon arrival, the campleaders will be there to welcome you and guide you through the introduction. Make sure your phone is on and reachable upon arrival at the airport. On July 8, transportation will be provided from the workcamp location to Alicante Airport, departing at 8:00 AM. The group is expected to arrive at Alicante Airport (ALC) between 9:00 and 9:15 AM. Please do not book an early flight, as it will not be possible to arrive at the airport earlier. Unfortunately, the driver or campleaders cannot assist with check-in procedures, so volunteers should be prepared to handle that independently.

Krav

The extra fee has be paid by card ( in the exceptional cases we can accept bank transfer as well) 3 weeks before the camp as a confirmation of participation. If we don't receive the fee and the flight/bus tickets of the volunteer, we will consider that she/he will not attending to project and we will give opportunity to other volunteers that are on the waiting list. This season, we have secured a partnership with Beniconnect, a transport company that will provide direct transfers for volunteers attending TEEN workcamps in Alicante province. Participants will be picked up directly from the airport arrivals and taken to the workcamp location in a private minibus (8 to 14 people per group). In previous years, transportation has been a significant challenge, as public connections to the locations where our workcamps take place are not very reliable. We believe that this new solution will make the journey much smoother, safer, and more comfortable for everyone.
