開催期間 2025/10/05(日)～2025/10/19(日)
背景 For the first time, Gerolstein town council is inviting international volunteers and cooperates with IBG. To make the small town even more attractive for visitors and tourists, the ascent from the market square through a gate in the historic city wall (Margaret’s Gate) to the L?wenburg castle ruins is to be redesigned. This steep footpath is part of both the historic town tour and the well-known long-distance hiking trail ‘Eifelsteig’. In addition to the work project, exchanges and encounters with locals are also important. Various institutions and associations are involved in the project (schools, volunteer fire brigade, hiking club, local heritage association, etc.). This guarantees that the two weeks will be intense, exciting and fun.
仕事内容 The beautiful town of Gerolstein is located in the middle of the UNESCO Geo Nature Park Vulkaneifel. To make it even more attractive for visitors and tourists, the ascent from the market square to the L?wenburg castle ruins is to be redesigned. Together with local volunteers you will work on this steep footpath. Concrete tasks will be:
? Plant roses, as these were historically present there
? Plant marguerites, as the path leads through the Margaret's Gate of the historic city wall.
? Other landscaping activities to make the slope attractive and the transition between the town and the castle hill more smoothly.
? Construction of wooden benches for a viewing point.
? Maintenance of the metal railings.
? Set up information boards about the history of the path,
As local volunteers are still collecting ideas, these tasks might slightly change.
宿泊 You will be staying in a village community centre in one of the suburbs of Gerolstein. There is a kitchen, showers and enough space for sleeping, eating and chilling. Please make sure to bring a sleeping bag and a pillow if needed. The group of volunteers will be responsible for meal preparation, which includes grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning up afterward. Food will be purchased with the camp budget and tasks will be distributed during the first days to ensure everyone participates.
