"Pick up trash while walking the Daecheongho Obaengni-gil."
Daejeon Tourism Organization announced that it will hold the 'Daecheongho Obaengni-gil Plogging Event' from May 27 to November 22 to promote walking tours along the Daecheongho Obaengni-gil trail and to practice ESG management.
Plogging, a compound word combining the Swedish "plocka upp" (to pick up) and "jogga" (to jog), is a global environmental movement encouraging participants to pick up trash they spot while jogging, simultaneously promoting health through exercise and protecting the environment.
This year's target sections for the Daecheongho Obaengni-gil Plogging Event are sections 1 through 5 of the trail, and the event will end when the prizes are depleted.
To participate, individuals can carry out plogging activities along the Daejeon section of the Daecheongho Obaengni-gil and upload verification photos to the survey form, with prizes awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
"We invite you to walk and enjoy Daecheongho Obaengni-gil, Daejeon's representative eco-tourism resource, while joining in environmental protection," Daejeon Tourism Organization President Kim Yong-won said.
