LWA Community season finale 2024
On this last Saturday in September, it feels like we're coming home. So many people here that we know and so much joy at the start. And so much water, because on this morning, the 28....
Welcome to Fairyland - Expedition Tour Arctic Circle 2024
When the first pictures of this long-planned, adversity-ridden and ultimately magical tour appeared in the LWA Messenger, Cora and I probably thought the same thing: "Wow, they were traveling in elf-land". I myself have just been through...
Albania 2024 - „Coming back to Albania?“
It's not easy to describe our Albania whitewater tour - it's totally different every time. We actually had no broken paddles in 2024 - and no lost luggage. No brown floods awaited us this year with...
Four seasons in the Hunsrück 2024 - Multiday at its best!

After an adventurous and, for us, very special 2023 season - our 10th anniversary - our traditional season finale took place on September 23 + 24 at our Nahe base, the Nahe Alsenz Eck campsite. And wow, was it a great weekend!
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!
As is so often the case, these wonderful weeks on the Alpine rivers in June began with small things. When I, Sebastian, arrive at the campsite in the foothills of the Alps the night before the first day of the course and walk down the small path...
