Great atmosphere at the Szőce bog volunteer camp

We organised a nature conservation volunteer camp at the legendary Szőce bog. More than twenty adult volunteers helped us to preserve one of the most exceptional habitats in Hungary by collecting hay that had been mown on the bog.

The camp took place from 2-7 July 2023. Our volunteers performed beyond our expectations in managing the grassland, and in recognition of their efforts, our colleagues introduced them to the beauty of the Őrség landscape through a variety of exciting programmes and events. After collecting hay each morning, they explored  the area's treasures, butterflies, the Pityerszer Folk Monument Ensemble and much more.
