Discover the Alps from Valloire this summer! Concordia and the town of Valloire are offering you the chance to participate in an international volunteer workcamp in one of Savoy's most beautiful resorts. Combine business with pleasure by getting involved in a project that highlights the local environment and Savoyard heritage.
You will be working on the creation of a path in an undergrowth area that will give locals and tourists access to Valloire's pump-track: a loop track made up of bumps and banked turns that can be used with a variety of sports equipment, including mountain bikes and BMX bikes.
You don't need any special skills to take part in this project. All you need is a good dose of motivation and a good mood !

You will be accommodated in individual tents at the Valloire campsite. There are toilets and showers on site. The municipality will provide a part of the village hall, which is less than 200 metres from the campsite. We will set up a kitchen and a living area for group time, which is also a shelter in case of bad weather. Together, you will help to organise group life (cleaning, activities, etc.) and take it in turns to prepare meals using locally sourced products. As far as possible, we will promote vegetarian meals using local, seasonal products, while ensuring that the diets of all participants are respected and that local gastronomy is discovered.
Wifi access points are available free of charge in certain areas of the resort, as they are at the campsite. There is also a washing machine.

Situated in the Savoie department, in the Auvergne Rhône-Alpes region, the commune of Valloire covers 17 hamlets in the heart of the Tarentaise massif and is located near the Italian border. In the centre of the village, the altitude is 1400 metres. But if you like a bit of height, the Col du Galibier rises to 2642 metres! It's the perfect place to discover some exceptional scenery.
Numerous hikes await you, including the one to Lac de Cerces. In the immediate vicinity, there are a number of lakes where you can take a refreshing swim. And if you're keen on heritage, you can discover the unusual Fort du Télégraphe. When it comes to gastronomy, be sure to (re)discover the Savoyard cheeses produced on site!
The resort offers a wide variety of sports and cultural facilities (swimming pool, cinema, media library, etc.) as well as convenience shops.

Valloire is a tourist resort in both summer and winter. It is a welcoming resort that regularly organises numerous events to help visitors discover the richness of its territory and Savoyard culture. Throughout the year, locals and tourists come together in a friendly atmosphere that combines access to both leisure activities and traditions. It is with the desire to help you discover this resort in a different way that the commune is organising a third international volunteer work camp, following two very successful editions in 2022 and 2023.
If you are aged between 15 and 17 and would like to take part in this work camp, contact Concordia's international work camp officer in Rhône Alpes (chantiers.rhone-alpes@concordia.fr). Two places are reserved for local young people to encourage exchanges and encounters.

Foreigners belonging to the European Union must bring with them a personal EHIC (European Health Insurance Card), and everybody must, in any case, bring their insurance certificate. If health issues happen on the project, volunteers will have to pay for them personally, and will then be reimbursed once back in their home country.

Don't forget to take protective clothing that won't get dirty when you're on site.
In the mountains, despite the sunshine, the weather is surprising and can change rapidly. For both leisure activities and working, you will need to pack clothes that are suited to the climate (warm fleece or pull-over, shorts and hiking trousers, windbreaker, down jacket, warm socks, etc.). High-cut, notched shoes are essential. Don't forget sun protection (a hat or cap is essential, sunglasses with a high level of protection because of the intense glare, sun cream with a high protection factor of IP30-50, etc.) and a swimming costume for swimming or activities in whitewater or at the pool (where swimming shorts are not permitted).
For sleeping, remember to take a warm sleeping bag (comfort 10°C) and a pillowcase (you can put things in it and easily make a pillow). You should also bring a backpack (in addition to your luggage), comfortable trainers and a pair of flip-flops. You'll also need to pack these essential accessories: a mobile phone charger, hiking poles (not compulsory, but recommended), a water bottle, a set of bandages and a headlamp or torch. Friendly activities will be organised in collaboration with our entertainers and according to your wishes. If you'd like to share a little of your culture (cooking recipes, traditional stories, unusual objects, music...), don't hesitate to take a little piece of your country or region in your backpack and a small Bluetooth speaker!
On the last day (19/07), the departure time is usually set in the morning.
