A total of 199 kilos of trash were collected at the Mt. Apo Natural Park, weeks after it faced closure due to garbage, vandalism, and violations committed by some trekkers in the area.

The Department of Environment and Natural Resources in Region XII, through the office of Mt. Apo Natural Park Cotabato, as well as 132 volunteers from partner local government units , agencies, groups and other stakeholders, conducted a simultaneous clean-up drive last week at the country's highest mountain.

DENR 12 regional director Felix Alicer reminded trekkers and climbers to follow the rules and help them protect and conserve Mt. Apo and its natural resources. DENR said volunteers also covered traces of vandalism at Mt. Apo, and they were able to plant at least two seedlings of trees along their assigned trails.
