When the sun's disk disappears behind the horizon, a wonderful spectacle unfolds. Sometimes with illuminated clouds, sometimes without.
Of course, the best way to watch the sunset is from an airplane.
But even as a pedestrian, there are many places in Bitterwasser where you can watch the sun disappear.
The small hut at the end of the Palmallee invites you to sit down and enjoy the evening hours.
The walk at dusk through the palm alley is an additional highlight in the evening.
At the end of the game drive, the Bitter Water Safari, you can also relax on a high dune. Here you have a panoramic view of the wilderness around Bitterwasser.
The sunset is a new delight every evening!
A stay at the Bitterwasser Lodge is usually beyond the financial means of young pilots. At the same time, the next generation is the key to the future of our wonderful sport—and of the lodge as well. That is why supporting young pilots is a core part of the Bitterwasser Flying Center’s mission.
Early October is the ideal time to prepare the runways for flight operations. You can land at the Bitterwasser Flying Lodge in every which direction—depending on how you look at it, on 8 runways (plus one emergency runway), each in two directions. Jeremias carefully levels the landing area over the course of several weeks.
