Clean-Up Tour
Since its beginnings in 2001, Summit Foundation has been organising waste collection days in the mountains. The “Clean-Up Tour” brings these actions together under a single banner. The aim is to increase the impact of these actions by pooling them. Throughout Switzerland, ski resorts are inviting the public to sign up to clean up the mountains after the winter.
