The 2025/26 Bitterwasser season is coming to an end
At around 2 p.m. on Tuesday, January 27, 2026, the first truck carrying one of our seven containers set off. This marked the end of another impressive gliding season in Bitterwasser.
The happy faces as the pilots returned spoke for themselves. The start of our new season could hardly have got off to a better start. Despite a moderate weather forecast at the morning briefing, we were able to record four flights of over 1000 kilometers out of 19 take-offs. One long-standing guest proudly reported in the evening that this had been his best flight in Namibia in over 15 years.
With such a great start, we are looking forward to the coming weeks and are excited about the many more highlights coming up this season.
The Flying Lodge Bitterwasser team would like to thank everyone who made this first day such a great success. Stay tuned - the adventure is only just beginning!

In Europe Christmas is usually associated with cold temperatures, early sunsets and, in the best case scenario, snow. In Bitterwasser, the world looks very different.
