Throughout Germany, almost 99% of the original moors were destroyed due to draining and degradation. In Raubling, over the last 8 years, there has been the largest moor-renaturalization project in central Europe. The drainage ditches in the former peat bogs have been closed and walls made of peat have been built in order to keep rain water within the moor. In the most re-wetted areas, both plant growth and biodiversity are now on the rise. Besides this, these efforts have aided in both climate and flood protection (due to a reduction of greenhouse gases). In this workcamp you have the opportunity to ensure that the original nature of the moors, and conservation work itself, is ecologically sound, accessible and tangible. You’ll be building a footpath, thinning out shrubbery, putting up screening fences, as well as taking care of the plants and the dam. And all of this with a lovely view of the mountains!
