Anyone can join us! Registration is very easy & of course free of charge. If you are joining us for the first time, you will find step-by-step instructions on how the PATRON CleanUP Days work & how you can become part of the PATRON community on this page. Together for #plasticfreepeaks.
Choose day, team & tour.
Whether you're going alone, with friends, colleagues or family: choose a day during the respective period of our CleanUP events and think about which route you want to take to give something back to nature.
Still not sure which route you want to take? Get inspiration from our PATRON CleanUP Map. Here you will find great tour tips from our tourism partners under the filter "Distribution points for CleanUP kits".
In the interactive PATRON CleanUP Map, you can enter your planned CleanUP and see where rubbish is already being collected. Check whether your favourite route is already being cleaned up. No? Then register your tour so that your commitment can also be seen on the map and added to the impact at the end.
Ready? Then get your CleanUP Kit!
During the PATRON CleanUP Days, you can pick up your free kit at one of our CleanUP Kit pick-up stations. You can also find the stations on the CleanUP Map.
The CleanUP Kit consists of a pair of stainless steel tongs and a bin liner. The choice is yours: if you go out more often, choose the reusable Fabric CleanUP Bag. If you want to try out a CleanUP for yourself, go for the recyclable Wild CleanUP Bag.
Registered & equipped? Let's go!
Set off, clean up and enjoy nature, the fun in a group and the great feeling of making a difference together.
Enjoy your CleanUP Hike!
Show us your commitment under the hashtag #grabitandtagit on Instagram and motivate more people to become part of the #plasticfreepeaks movement.
After your tour, you can empty your bin liner into the bins provided at a drop-off point. Your CleanUP Kit itself is intended to be kept and reused - please do not dispose of it! We will take care of the disposal of the collected rubbish afterwards. You can also find all drop-off points on the PATRON CleanUP Map.
Celebrate that you have given something back to Mother Nature - and connect with other PATRONs.
Because the community also plays an important role for us. At many tour stops, we organise a community CleanUP hike or ride, CleanUP talk, a #patronconcert or other events to exchange ideas, learn and educate ourselves, or simply meet like-minded people and make new friends.
Every Day is CleanUP Day.
You can also do good outside of the PATRON CleanUP Tour. You can register a private CleanUP on the CleanUP Map at any time. Just pack your CleanUP kit on your next hike and off you go!
PATRON is a community that is passionate about nature, committed to its protection and motivates others to join in. We strive for a future in which everyone awakens the patron (guardian) in them and takes action for nature conservation.
Do you want to be part of the community and get actively involved in the non-profit organisation?
