Project NATURA 2020 FOR A GOOD PURPOSE

We, the initiators of the campaign NATURA 2020 FOR A GOOD PURPOSE, understand that 99.99% of people want to visit primally preserved virgin forest, but they do not have a suitable chance neither time. Beside this it would not be possible to host them, because guided commercial trips would destroy unspoiled natural value of the virgin forest Šumik.

A new tourist reality forces us to raise the target 10,000 Euros which are needed for an urgent digitalisation of the Slovenian Pohorje mountainside customs Natura 2020 by use of the augmented reality technology. It allows us to document remnants of mills, sawmills, forges, iron manufactories, rafting, forestry and carpentry. We do not intend to make a profit. Our services are free of charge. We work voluntarily on the Project.

The aim of our campaign is raising funds for:

1. terrain and laboratory equipment, as well as a suitable vehicle with intention of increasing quality and safety of exploratory tourist experience;
2. making documentary movie about the natural reserve Šumik through 360-degree online videoclips which will enable a virtual trip;
3. presentation of accessible points of the natural reserve by use of the augmented reality technology for improved experience of simulated hiking. In this manner we want to get natural and cultural heritage closer to its visitors;
4. upgrading our existent web page into a more attractive and contemporary one.

Our society operates on a basis of voluntary contributions, because we do not rely on municipal, national or European funds. By help of raised funds we will provide normal conditions for research work of our green explorers, which sacrifice their free time for a benefit of users of the green natural value.

We can not live without nature and love! We face significant competition, every virgin forest in the world is promoted by strong teams. It is a hard struggle, because we are continually left to our own resources.

The beginning is not easy, each contribution is of great importance for us. Therefore, we are thankful in advance for your precious cooperation.

Yours faithfully,
