Albanien 2024 – „Coming back to Albania?“
19.07.2024Unsere Wildwasser Tour Albanien zu beschreiben ist gar nicht so einfach – ist sie doch jedes Mal wieder total anders. Wir hatten 2024 tatsächlich keine Paddelbrüche – und kein verlorenes Gepäck. In diesem Jahr erwartete uns kein braunes Hochwasser mit stetig steigenden Wasserständen. Die Vjosa war trotzdem wuchtig, teilweise sogar mit höheren Wellen an Stellen, die wir so noch gar nicht kannten. Der Osum war auch bei Niedrigwasser ein absoluter Traum – wo sonst gibt es solch einen Canyon „wie eine Kathedrale“, der von den Wildwasserschwierigkeiten her doch relativ einfach zu befahren ist.

Getting started in whitewater with LWA
Can I do that? How can I do that? And preferably where? It's clear: not everyone wants to learn whitewater paddling and packrafting is a fascinating outdoor sport even without strong currents, waves, eddies and the typical roar of alpine rivers. We know that.

Soča 2023 - Once different, beautiful as always
In the 10 years that I have been living this LWA adventure, few things have accompanied me as constantly as the annual feeling of arriving in the Soča Valley in late summer. Anyone who knows me knows that I am often drawn to places where nobody...
Alps 2023 - Sometimes everything is just right!
