Together you help to mow meadows in the surrounding communities and to harvest hay. Some of the meadows lie on slopes and are difficult to reach with machines. In orchard meadows, you mend fences and protect trees against browsing by sheep. You maintain rough pastures to preserve the habitat of endangered animal and plant species. You tear out small trees like willows to prevent the spread of trees and shrubs in this special biotope and can learn a lot about nature conservation. --- Absolute highlight for nature lovers! Be sure to bring mountain boots, i.e. ankle-high and sturdy hiking shoes!!!
In Freising you can take the S-Bahn to Munich. You can visit museums, the English Garden or the famous Munich Hofbräuhaus. In the Munich countryside and the Alps you can hike and enjoy nature. Due to the proximity to the Hallertau, the largest hop-growing area in the world, there are many typical beer gardens.
You cook together. Money for the food shopping is provided to you. Vegetarian or vegan meals are possible. Please indicate any allergies when registering.
You will stay in a cosy and large self-catering house of the "Friends of Nature" in Marzling, 5 km outside Freising, idyllically situated on a slope above the Isar with a view of the Alps and a large sun terrace. You will all stay together in a mattress dormitory on the 1st floor. You need to bring sleeping bags and sheets. The project organisers will provide you with a washing machine in the disabled toilet and a second fridge. There is no WiFi, but there is an internet café in Freising. You can also access the internet at the Freising Youth Centre. It is closed during the holidays because of holiday care, but can be opened on a weekday by arrangement."

By bus or with the minibus you will reach Freising in about 20-25 minutes. From there, the S-Bahn train travels to Munich. In Munich you have the opportunity to visit many museums, the English Garden or the famous Munich Hofbrauhaus. You will be provided with bicycles for the duration of the camp, which means you will not have to rely on cars in order to go to nearby lakes and beer gardens, or to the train station in Freising. There are very good offers for train tickets like the “Schönes-Wochenende” weekend ticket and the Bayern (Bavaria) ticket, which will allow you to spend your free time exploring the whole of Bavaria.
In the area surrounding Munich and in the Alps, you can go hiking and enjoy nature. Due to the close proximity to Hallertau, the largest hop-growing region in the world, there are many typical beer gardens in beautifully preserved villages such as Attenkirchen, Au or Rudelzhausen. You can go swimming in one of the lakes in Freising or in the Freising pool. Furthermore,a trip to Landshut (about 30km away) is also very worthwhile. Landshut has a very beautiful historic old town, as well as the Martinskirche – the tallest brick church tower in the world.

The camp lasts for four weeks. Some weather resistance is necessary for the tasks outside. The tasks may be physically challenging. You must bring ankle high mountain boots/mountain shoes, which you will need for work as well as for hiking! We look forward to meeting you if you enjoy spending time outside in the nature, and enjoy hiking and biking! It is great for this camp’s organization if you enjoy cooking, since the group will prepare its own meals, grocery shop, and even receive free groceries from some local shops in Freising, Only 1 participant per country; cycling; the work can be physically demanding.
Please note: There is a special Teenage Fee of 150€ for international volunteers who applied under 18 in this camp.
