Casa del Parco Adamello is a multifunctional, community place where people can meet and discuss mountain culture. It is a space committed to territorial promotion where we can draw a path focused on enhancing potential and local resources. Here we arrange cultural events, workshops and training addressed to social innovators and people involved in mountain areas development.

工作 / WORK

Volunteers will be mainly involved in cleaning and maintaining the high and medium mountain and agro-silvo-pastoral paths adjacent to the hostel, as well as supporting the activities of agricultural companies. They will also be involved in restoring the signs of the local paths and in taking care of the greenery of the large park surrounding the hostel. For the identification of the routes, obtaining permits, on-site accompaniment and assistance during the carrying out of activities relating to the paths, we avail ourselves of the support and collaboration of the Cedegolo section of the Italian Alpine Club (CAI), of the Valcamonica Mountain Community, of the municipal administrations of Cevo and Saviore dell Adamello and some agricultural companies in Valsaviore. The shifts will be 6 hours per day, for 5 days a week. We guarantee 1 rest days depending on the weather conditions.

住宿和食物 / ACCOMODATION AND FOOD

Participants will be hosted at the Casa del Parco hostel and accommodated in several shared rooms: each room has 4 to 5 beds, private bathroom and shower. There are several common areas, including reading rooms, a restaurant and a large outdoor garden, as well as free Wi-Fi and the possibility of using the washing machine once a week.Due to the location of the facility in a closed valley, we cannot guarantee a fast internet connection. Meals will be served mainly in the hostel with a predominantly vegetarian menu, however variations may be made to meet different needs. When necessary, volunteers are expected to bring a packed lunch, while on other days they will have lunch together with the local community or at the farms that will host them for their tasks. Volunteers can feel free to help the staff with meal preparation, set and clear the tables.

位置與休閒活動 / LOCATION & LEISURE ACTIVITY

Cevo is a small mountain village of 800 inhabitants located inside the Adamello Regional Park, at an altitude of 1100 m. Placed at the junction of two valleys closed by the head of Adamello glacier, it offers a barely anthropic, natural environment which counts on a reduced tourism flow. An atmosphere foreign to urban chaos where time seems to flow slowly, ideal to hike surrounded by nature.

要求 / REQUIREMENTS

Volunteers should bring their own trekking shs and proper mountain clothes.

“We ask to the international volunteers to commit themselves in the mission of the hosting projects, having an open mind, and arriving aware that the accommodation conditions may not be suitable for those looking for cheap and comfortable holidays. Every project is made by many factors, and we need from the volunteers a problem-solving approach.�
