This year our Spring Camp event will last from 01st until 10th of May. Initial activity will be focused on help in forming an attractive outdoor oasis hidden in oak forest at Lovcen mountain slopes above the Adriatic coast, later continuing with clearance of overgrown hiking trails near NP Skadarsko lake and on Lisinj mountain. Spring Camp will have 4 stages this time. The last stage will be a beach camping retreat after the hard work is done!

Working tools, transports and food is provided from the Spring Camp organizers. Minimum equipment for a volunteer to bring are: working/hiking clothes, rain gear, hiking shoes and sleeping bag.

Good to know that some campsites do not have regular facilities, so toilet /shower have to be improvised, especially during first 5 days at the mountain ridge.

Anyone who read this lines and feel enough fit and adventurous to join us is welcome, but please be aware that number of volunteers is restricted, so first 10 volunteers confirming it’s arrival will be allowed.

Our “Spring Camp” is a 10-day event dedicated to the maintenance of hiking trails. It aims to promote eco-tourism and sustainable visions in Montenegro.

In the spring of 2026 this event will take place in the Mediterranian part of Montengero in order to improve the conditions on the Coastal Mountaineering Transversal and to point out the beauty of this region to the volunteers.

It aims to improve enviromental awareness among the local inhabitants and to serve as an example for future activities of this kind.

Only 10 Spaces Available

Spaces are limited and allocated
on a first-come, first-served basis,
so don't wait too long to apply!

WHAT TO EXPECT?

Last event held in May 2025, having volunteers from Macedonia, Netherlands, Belgium, France, USA, Slovakia, Serbia and Montenegro

Again, this year’s wish is to have many international and regional participants, people who love mountains and voluntary work and want to share their experiences.

The trails you will be restoring cover some of the most picturesque hiking areas in Europe.

Montenegro is still largely unspoiled and off the beaten path, offering a unique opportunity to experience the country before it becomes a major tourist destination.

Kotor Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is often called Europe’s southernmost fjord. It sits on the historic frontier between the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman Empires—a line that remains the border between EU and non-EU Balkan states today.

You will spend your time in and above the Boka Kotorska Bay, working on trails that overlook one of the most beautiful bays in the world.

Volunteers will visit UNESCO site Boka and two National Parks

In short, you will find incredible photography opportunities, deep local knowledge from our regional volunteers, and the kind of camaraderie that builds lifelong friendships. This is a unique chance to help Montenegro develop its vision for sustainable and eco-friendly tourism.

During the “Spring Camp,” volunteers will enjoy few excursions and authentic local meals designed to showcase the best of Montenegrin hospitality, culture, and history.

MONTENEGRO

Getting to Orahovac (Spring Camp)

Our experiance begins in Orahovac, Montenegro, a quiet coastal village on the Adriatic. Perfectly positioned in the Balkans, it is easily reached via three main hubs:

  • Tivat (TIV): 20km — The closest airport.

  • Podgorica (TGD): 85km — The capital’s main gateway.

  • Dubrovnik (DBV) Croatia: 65km — Often the best for international deals.

Travel Tip: Low-cost carriers like Ryanair and EasyJet fly frequently into these airports. May offers the best balance of affordable flights and early-season peace.

Detailed Location: For exact meeting coordinates and arrival logistics, please contact us via email.

OR SUPPORT US

Regarding luggage transport between campsites: We will provide vehicles for this, so don’t worry if your backpack is a bit too heavy to carry on the trail. We handle that so you can focus on the activities.

The expected weather in May is warm during the day (reaching 25°C+), though nights remain cool. In extreme cases, temperatures could drop close to 0°C, though this is generally not expected

We might have a small film crew join us to capture some of the camp's highlights and the beauty of the area. It’s a nice way to share the story of the trails, but we’ll keep it very low-key!
