The Summer Spiritual School of the White Brotherhood has ended. The camp of the followers of Peter Deunov's teaching was set up in the area of the Seven Rila Lakes at the end of July.

Since the beginning of August, thousands have climbed the mountain, which forced the municipality to add additional garbage containers at the starting station of the chairlift. Before leaving, the participants in the school did a complete cleaning of the area and organized the removal of the garbage bags with the lift.

Although the temperatures on the peaks of Rila have dropped significantly, the good weather continues to attract tourists.
