Work: The work will include: taking care of the forest (cleaning of brushwood after logging, repairing fences against animals’ gnawing, peeling of tree bark after bark beetle infestation), maintaining the meadows (raking, removal of invasive trees and plants, mowing with a scythe, breaking up the turf, making turf after wild pigs, collecting stones), collection and cleaning of garbage, disposal of illegal dumps, cleaning of gutters, etc. Most of the work will be outdoors, bring a long-sleeved T-Shirt and full-length trousers, boots and a raincoat. No previ-ous experience is required. Transport to the places of work will be provided by KRNAP Administration vehicles.
Study part: Science excursions, lectures and workshops on environmental education and nature protection, management in the natural park and organization of an international evening.
You will stay in a mountain cottage Stare Polesi in Horni Mala Upa. You will sleep in rooms for 2-6 people on beds, blankets and sheets will be provided. There are bathrooms and a kitchen. There is no washing machine. WiFI is available. You will prepare your own meals together as a group.
Location: The project will take place in Horni Mala Upa and its surroundings. Since the area is mainly used for recreation and is located close to the border with Poland, there are not many services in comparison with the cities. There are several restaurants, an information centre, a post office, and an ATM, but there is no grocery store, the nearest pharmacy is in Svoboda nad Upou (18 km) and a hospital is in Trutnov (28 km). During the project, however, as part of the informal education, we will be in the city at least every other day.
Leisure time: There are many possibilities for trips such as trips in the Krkonose Mountains (Snezka, Labska Bouda, Pancavsky waterfall), a treetop trail in the Krkonose Mountains, a trip to the ZOO in Dvur Kralove nad Labem, Trutnov swimming pool, games and discussions with environmental topics, visits to Krkonose museums, learning about traditional Krkonose crafts, a visit to the KRNAP environmental centre etc.
The project is organized in cooperation with the Association of Friends of the Krkonose Nature. The purpose of the association is nature and landscape protection, cooperation with public and private entities, and environmental education in cooperation with the KRNAP Administration. The aim of the project is to familiarize participants with the unique mountain ecosystems of the national park, to assist in maintaining and restoring species diversity of plants and trees and to motivate the volunteers to engage in local nature protection in their place of residence. At this project, you are actively contributing to the achievement of the UN SDG15 Life on Land.
Please bring suitable clothes that can get dirty or damaged, good shoes, and waterproof clothes or a raincoat.
You will spend a lot of time outdoors so you can get into contact with different kinds of plants, herbs, pollen, and insects (risk for people with allergies). The project is suitable for everyone interested in the environment and its protection.
