Turka

 Project name: Turka

 Dates: 16th – 29th August 2005

 Project area: The group will be located around the village of Turka in the Buryat republic.

 Work proposed: Volunteers will help construct a special trail providing access for wheelchairs to Lake Baikal.  As this is a long term project the group will be carrying out foundation and preparation work on the trail for future projects.  The group will also continue work begun in 2004 making furniture and other necessary structures (tables, benches, rubbish-bins, toilets, etc.) for a camp-site in the area.

 Volunteer accommodation: Volunteers will sleep in tents.

 Entertainment and excursions

There will be the opportunity for fishing and a small hiking excursion around the village to see and explore Baikal’s natural environment.
