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!
The Bitterwasser Flying Lodge was the main sponsor of the Junior World Gliding Championships, where from August 2 to 17, 2026, around 80 pilots from 22 nations competed for the titles in the Standard and Club classes. The grand prize for the JWGC winners was a one-week stay at the lodge, including travel and an airplane.
Largely unnoticed by the public, the 5th Red Bull Global Aerial Performance Camp 2026 took place in Bitterwasser, Namibia, from April 21, 2026, to April 30, 2026.
A few videos and pictures on this page offer a glimpse of the athletes and their performances.
