Project: Lespace Randonne (Hiking area) of the Pays du Buech (www.buech-rando.com) brings together five communities from communes in the Hautes Alpes around a common objective: develop, invigorate and promote non-motorised hiking activities: pedestrian, bike tourism, VTT and horse riding, for the purposes of tourism and local development. In the face of extensive maintenance work required every year over the 1000 kilometres of trails, since 2010, lespace Randonne organises many international volunteer workcamps in partnership with the association Les Village des Jeunes (www.villagedesjeunes.org). This workcamp is an occasion for a true immersion in nature: it will allow you to discover the beautiful Hauts-Alpins countryside, its fauna and its flora. The proposed work is accessible to all but it involves walking in mountains every day to reach the site of the workcamp. Task: This workcamp involves clearing brush from paths invaded by vegetation, cutting down trees, pruning or marking out the trails in the Rosanais sector. In this region lying next to the Drome, the meeting of Alpine and Mediterranean vegetation creates a diversity and a surprisingly rich flora, whether it be in the wild or in the heart of the countryside. Every week, the group will move to different sections, a time to discover the countryside from different points of view. Free time: During free time, you will be able to go swimming in the Rosanais lake and in nearby rivers, carry out sporting activities and organise international meals with the local inhabitants. During the weekends, touristic outings to discover the region may also be organised. For the enthusiasts of VTT and bike tourism, note that the session in May finishes with the Buiscyclette: a local sports event that takes place in a convivial and familial atmosphere with numerous activities. Lodging: Camping Location: Rosans (30km from Serres, 40km from Nyons, 200km from Marseille) Closest train station: Serres
