The stunning natural beauty of Mt.Helmos and it surrounding areas in the early morning hours inspired us to put together this short musical documentary taken during the 2024-2025 CleanCloud CHOPIN (Cleancloud Helmos OrograPhic sIte experimeNt) campaign. We hope you enjoy this journey. Don't forget to check out the other videos related to  CHOPIN on this channel!
