Game Drive and Sun Downer

In the past Bitterwasser was a farm. There are no cattle here anymore, but game instead. Giraffes and zebras have been settled. Large springbok herds came about without any action. They are now the attraction for the game drives, the safari trips.

At the end are the popular sun downers. Celebrating the sunset. The third large dune is the favored viewing platform. From here the view extends far across the landscape to the horizon. With your feet in the still hot red sand and a cold drink from the improvised bar in your hand, you are more than willing to let yourself be taken in by the beauty of Namibia. A night drive takes you back to the lodge later.

We mourn the loss of Dieter Schwenk

As a member of the Bitterwasser Board of Directors and CFI of the Soaring Society of Namibia, Dieter has rendered outstanding services to gliding in Namibia.

Sitting at his favorite spot in Bitterwasser, he has left us forever.

We will not forget him.

Season final

The season in Bitterwasser is slowly drawing to a close.
One by one, the gliders are being loaded into the containers. And still some teams fly over 1000 kilometers every day.
