Presentation of the association:

The little village of Han-sur-Lesse, located near Ardennes and one hour by car from Brussels, is home to one of the most famous caves of the continent, the Cave of Han. The Cave of Han is exceptional in terms of beauty of its concretions and the immensity of its chambers. It is carved by the river Lesse that flows through it from one side to another. It has welcomed more than 20 million visitors for over 250 years.

The Project:

Dates: from June to September
Type: outdoor activities
Max volunteers: 2 volunteers

The volunteers will have to:

 watch over the path, while walking and observing the visitors in order to guide and help them;

 prevent visitors from leaving the path and venturing in other parts of the Reserve (presence of wild animals);

 ensure the visitors do not damage equipment or harm the animals, and that they do not adopt dangerous behaviours (for instance, pass their hand through the enclosures) nor disturb the path (noises, garbage, etc.);

 be in charge of activities and give information along the path: to inform visitors on practical questions (distances, timetable of the safari-bus, localization of the toilets, rain shelters, etc.) and to provide further information, for those who are interested, concerning the animals and the nature (a basic training in that field will be given to the volunteer at his/her arrival);

 ensure the maintenance of the path: every evening, the volunteer empties the bin axnd the dry toilets; to collect waste; to ensure some maintenance work (ex : paint furniture);

 organize, some days, the picking-up of the visitors by the safari-bus at the end of the path (while being in contact with the central service and the drivers of the safari-bus by phone);

 carry out other tasks from time to time when there are fewer visitors, for example some maintenance work in the Reserve or create pedagogic tools;

 take part, occasionally, in the preparation and animation of different events that take place in the Domain.
The working hours are between 10.00 a.m. to 18.00 p.m. with a break for lunch. The volunteer will work 5 days a week generally including Saturday and Sunday.

Accommodation:

The volunteer will be hosted in a touristic inn just in front of the reception of the Cave of Han. You will share a 4 or 6-bed bedroom with all the facilities.

Food:

All the meals of the volunteers will be provided, you will eat at the inn restaurant for breakfast and dinner, and you will eat in the domain for lunch.
