A five-day summer camp run by Slow Lake Como in the Spina Verde Regional Park that teaches survival skills, orienteering and hands-on creative workshops amid woodland history.
Campo Solare Drezzo: a summer in the wild heart of Spina Verde.
The Centro Estivo 2025 at Campo Solare di Drezzo unfolds entirely inside Parco Regionale Spina Verde, where open-air learning and low‑tech adventure shape a week of survival skills, map work, botanical study and creative land‑art. The program combines practical outdoor competencies with workshops that use natural materials, all framed by the park’s rich history and wooded trails.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Survival and navigation
Participants learn to select a campsite and build a shelter, practice orienteering and map reading, and identify wildlife signs—hands‑on skills taught directly in the park’s woods.
Workshops with natural materials
Creative labs let children transform wood, leaves, clay and even copper into art and useful objects; land art and herbarium projects connect craft with local botany.
Learning inside Spina Verde Regional Park
The camp is set in the landscape of Spina Verde, where outdoor games, historical interpretation and expert‑led botanical identification put the park’s natural and cultural riches within reach of young participants.
What the day feels like
What a week in the park feels like
Across five days the schedule moves between exploration on wooded trails, structured survival and orienteering exercises, and slow, focused creative sessions—making pasta with just water and flour, building shelters, assembling herbariums and learning to read the land—so each day blends active outdoor time with hands‑on workshops.
