LWA Community Saisonabschluss 2024
Es fühlt sich an diesem letzten Samstag im September so an, als würden wir nach Hause kommen. So viele Menschen hier, die wir kennen, und so viel Freude am Start. Und so viel Wasser, denn an diesem Morgen, dem 28.…
Willkommen im Elfenland – Expeditionstour Polarkreis 2024
Als die ersten Bilder dieser lange geplanten, von Widrigkeiten im Vorfeld geschüttelten und am Ende wohl magischen Tour in den LWA Messenger, kamen dachten Cora und ich vermutlich dasselbe: „Wow, die waren in Elfen-Land unterwegs“. Ich selbst bin gerade durch…
Albania 2024 - „Coming back to Albania?“
Unsere Wildwasser Tour Albanien zu beschreiben ist gar nicht so einfach – ist sie doch jedes Mal wieder total anders. Wir hatten 2024 tatsächlich keine Paddelbrüche – und kein verlorenes Gepäck. In diesem Jahr erwartete uns kein braunes Hochwasser mit…
Vier Jahreszeiten im Hunsrück 2024 – Multiday at its best!

Soča 2023 - Once different, beautiful as always
In the 10 years that I have been living this LWA adventure, few things have accompanied me as constantly as the annual feeling of arriving in the Soča Valley in late summer. Anyone who knows me knows that I am often drawn to places where nobody...
Alps 2023 - Sometimes everything is just right!
As is so often the case, these wonderful weeks on the Alpine rivers in June began with small things. When I, Sebastian, arrive at the campsite in the foothills of the Alps the night before the first day of the course and walk down the small path...
Anniversary in the Hunsrück
Fancy a little campfire story about long waves in the Hahnenbach and kangaroos at the bakery? For the first anniversary weekend from March 30 - April 2, as part of our 10th anniversary (#lwawird10), we have invited a few very experienced and longtime LWA participants to join us for...
