Momente der Multiday Saison 2024
29.12.2024Ich bin auch nach mehr als 10 Jahren nicht ganz sicher, woran es genau liegt – aber es sind neben den Expeditionen immer wieder die Multiday-Kurse und -Touren, bei denen Erinnerungen und Momente am intensivsten bleiben. Vielleicht ist es der Verzicht auf Komfort, gepaart mit der Anstrengung und der Intensitität, mit der man Zeit miteinander verbringt. Vielleicht ist der Grund auch lediglich, weil ich mich ganz persönlich in diesem Modus schon immer am wohlsten und am natürlichsten fühle. Was auch immer es ist:
Soča 2024 - From summer to snow-covered peaks

Welcome to Elfenland - Expedition Tour Arctic Circle 2024

Four seasons in the Hunsrück 2024 - Multiday at its best!
Was für wunderschöne Multiday-Wochen liegen dieses Mal hinter uns. Um es vorweg zu nehmen, Schnee bleibt die extreme und bisher einmalige Ausnahme, aber dennoch hat das Wetter auch in diesem Frühjahr 2024 wieder für Spannung gesorgt. Von eisigem Graupel bis…
BayerWald 2024 - Was it summer already?
We were prepared for everything: Sleet from the side, snow on the tents, sub-zero temperatures at the start, very high water levels, water levels that were almost too low. After all, we had already experienced all of this in the three previous trips on this extraordinary tour. But...
Albania 2023 - When the Osum turned to cocoa
June 2023, the Guide Messenger channel to the back office. Sebastian has just written about the onset of snowfall in Norway. Johannes from Albania replies with just this sentence: "There's a thunderstorm here and the Osum has just turned to cocoa". The beautiful and the dangerous thing about...
Almost Alaska - Expedition Canada 2023

Getting started in whitewater with LWA
