Happy New Year!

A successful flying year is coming to an end.

And it needs a fitting end! The turn of the year in Bitterwasser was characterized by a great evening full of nice people, laughter and good food.

After all the guests had eaten their fill of chef Lize van der Merwe's masterfully designed 7-course menu, it was time to head out to the pan. A large, cozy campfire with a bar was waiting there. At midnight, the new year was greeted with a beautiful firework display.

Bitterwasser wishes everyone a healthy and happy 2024!

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.

Christmas in Bitterwasser – at 33°C and glorious sunshine

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.
