The adventure awaits: The nature is calling, friendships are forming!
The goal of this nature camp is broad and encompasses various aspects of children's development and education. Some of the key objectives include the development of social skills, as camps allow children to socialise and cooperate with others. Physical activity is encouraged through outdoor stays, hiking and cycling. Children develop independence and responsibility by making decisions on their own in different situations. The camp fosters connecting with the natural environment and strengthening children's relationship towards nature. Enjoying various activities, children gain experience and develop survival skills. Activities and educational programmes promote creative thinking and learning. Time spent outdoors in fresh air and without technology has a positive effect on mental health. Children have the opportunity to learn how to survive in nature, to acquire new skills, develop independence and teamwork, be active through cycling and exploring the Žumberak region, walk daily and collect herbs to prepare their own meals, as well as master various practical skills such as tying knots.
