What a start to the season!
The early birds did it. Elmar Fischer and Reinhard Schramme struck in the first few days. Here is Elmar's report:
The view from the glider is anything but one-sided. The landscape is constantly changing.
Around Bitterwasser, the Kalahri shows itself from its most beautiful side. The endless expanse in all its glory.
Flying westwards, a mountain range separating the Namib and the Kalahari extends beyond the desert. Both deserts extend into the south of Namibia. And the Namib Desert also has a lot to offer. In some parts there are sand dunes - some of the largest dunes in the world.
The landscape in the north is somewhat different. The climate becomes more humid, making the landscape a little greener.
If you look closely over Namibia, you can see not only the fantastic landscapes, but also the wildlife. Herds are on the move and can be observed from above.
Namibia has a lot to offer and is an absolute dream for flying enthusiasts.

On the weekends of September 6/7, 2025, and September 13/14, 2025, 30 gliders were loaded into seven containers to begin the long journey to Bitterwasser, Namibia.
All gliders are very well booked. There are still a few slots available at the beginning of November. If you are interested, please contact hog@bitterwasser.com.
