Clean trails on the Ritten - you too can participate!

Also this year we invite guests, vacationers and residents of the Ritten to participate in this environmental action on the Ritten. No registration is required: just show up at the meeting point. Tuesday, August 5th collection campaign at the Rittner Horn from 9.40 to 12 a.m. Starting point: ticket office / valley station of the Rittner Horn cable car. Associations, institutions, but also individual citizens can give with their participation a strong environmental signal against the wild disposal of waste in our forests. In past editions of this one, several kilograms of garbage were collected, mainly plastic packages, cans, bottles and paper tissues. Armed with gloves, garbage bags and tongs, we set about cleaning up three popular walks in Klobenstein & Oberbozen. The best litter is that which is not created at all, and the Clean Trails campaign thus sends an important message about avoiding litter. An October 2020 study by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) estimates that about 229,000 tons of plastic waste ends up in the Mediterranean each year. Italy produces 34,000 tons per year. All interested people can take part in the action and we expect a lively participation.
