Thousands of volunteers will traverse some 200 kilometres of walking trails in Poland’s highest mountain range, armed with rubber gloves and trash bags.

Each year, tourists leave behind hundreds of kilograms of litter.

The Clean Tatra campaign also aims to educate people about the national park’s history and to promote keeping it clean and staying safe in the mountains.

The two-day drive ends on Saturday. (vb/pk)
