This incident underscores the urgent need for greater environmental stewardship and responsible tourism practices. As destinations like Trunyan Hill gain popularity, it becomes imperative for visitors to uphold principles of sustainability and leave no trace behind. Failure to do so risks irreparable harm to these precious natural treasures.

Many people are curious about watching the beautiful sunrise at Trunyan and decide to go camping there. However, this leads to a lot of trash being left behind by the increasing number of hikers. As a result, some hiking groups feel ashamed and start picking up trash at Trunyan Hills.

There are many fun activities to do at Trunyan Hill, like camping, watching the sunrise, taking nature photos, and trekking. So, is it worth visiting Trunyan Hill? Yes, it’s still worth it. But remember to keep it clean when you visit so its natural beauty stays preserved.
