• PARTNER
• The Seven Strong Men is another name for the Manpupuner rock formations. It is a geological monument in Pechoro-Ilychskiy Natural Reserve, which represents a set of 7 stone pillars located west of the Ural mountains. Their name in the Komi language means "Mountain of idols". The height of the rocks varies between 30 and 42 metres. About 200 million years ago at the location of the stone pillars there were high mountains. Rain, snow, wind, frost, and heat gradually eroded the mountains. It�s a unique place which is further than 100 km from any habitat village or roads. Currently, this place is considered one of the 7 wonders of Russia which brings a lot of illegal tourists who destroy the soil, making new walking paths which makes more marshes and destroys local flora.

• WORK
• Attention: work is going to be quite intense and physically demanding. Volunteers are going to build wooden walking paths to protect the soil and develop tourist infrastructure (poling, woodwork, working with a shovel). The working day is 8 hours (starting at 6 am with a 1-hour lunch break). Volunteers will be carrying wood and working materials (2-5 km) themselves and walking for 20-25 km during the whole camp. There will be 2 days off when the volunteers can hike to the Manpupuner.
