Konaklama ve Yemek
The accommodation will be in tents (that will be provided, but you can bring your own, if you want more comfort, we will not make any problems; sleeping bags, as well, can be given by local host), there will be compost toilets (important to know) and showers.
Food will be prepared by local chef who will use local healthy and seasonal products. Although there will be some cutlery (knife, fork and spoon), it is recommended that you bring your own, since that policy is something favorited by the local host.
Konum ve Serbest Zaman
The camp is located on the mountain Rtanj (pronounced-Rtany) in lower part of Eastern Serbia. It is well-known for its intact nature, rich flora and fauna, but also its legends and stories, because the shape of the mountain is the one of pyramid (to what festival owes its name; uuu, so mysterious). The best thing you can do there is ask locals to tell you some of those, so you can enjoy in the depth behind myths.
Other than that, it is wonderful place, where you can hike and relax, searching for fresh air, clean water and nice locals.
Of course, during the festival, volunteers will have the opportunity to access every part of it, as well as to participate in many interesting workshops on different topics.
Since everything is made for people there to have great time, just bring your smile and all the rest will be for eternal memory!

En Yakın Terminal
Although the airport in Nis is the closest one, probably significantly more options arrive to Belgrade. So, from both places, the buses for Boljevac or Sokobanja should be taken.
