Cleaning of the protected area Spring River under the MARLENA project

The action will take place on September 14 (Saturday). If you want to take a day out to do something good and contribute to making the Izvorska protected area a cleaner and more beautiful place, you are welcome. The organizers are expecting those who want to leave on 14 October (Saturday) at 10:00 pm in the parking lot of the Bela na Trapezitsa store, from where a bus will depart for the Chengene Skele Protected Area. The return to Burgas is scheduled for 4:30 pm. The action will take the form of a hike during which the contaminated sites will be cleaned, the garbage will be removed. The MARLENA project provides the necessary sacks and gloves for cleaning, as well as food and drink for participants, transportation for the first 20 to be sewn. You are asked to recharge with a good mood and a willingness to work. The Izvorska River is rich in fish, but fishing is prohibited in the protected area. The place is suitable for visiting organized groups and individual tourists. In order not to interfere with the birds and other inhabitants of the protected area, two arbors with tables and benches were erected on the shore of the Mandra Dam directly opposite the protected area. The location of the route is on the very shore of the Mandra Dam, into which the Izvorska River flows. It is reached by: bus or car and there are two routes. One through the village of Marinka. To get to Marinka from Burgas you have to take the direction of Malko Turnovo. When you reach the village of Marinka you take the direction of the next village of Dimchevo. Just before it and before the bridge on the right is the shore of Mandra, where you will find two arbors for relaxation. Orient yourself on the road signs. Then there is a fork in the left, a dirt road that will take you to a place with a nice view of the mouth of the river. The second one suggests that you pass through the Meden Rudnik quarter towards the village of Tvarditsa. Then again follow the signs for the village of Dimchevo and after passing through this settlement take to Marinka to see the picnic spot, but this time on the left side of the road
