The little zoo

Perhaps someone still remembers the little cats that were born two years ago on Bitterwasser in the workshop. The remaining two, Catherine and Paul live since then on the farm Olifants Water West of Eckhart .

We visited Eckhart and found them both in great shape.

On the left is Katharina and on the right Paul.

 

Baki, the young springbok and the four ostriches have been released in the meantime. Since all of them are very territorial, they can often be seen at the waterhole. But they have become much more shy. Baki only allows us to get within 2 meters of him and the ostriches now keep a distance of about 20 meters.

In the background you can see the ostriches.

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.
