Between Foolishness and Boredom

Getting on an adventure means always taking on risks. We dare something new, something whose outcome we can hardly or cannot foresee:

How to find an Adventure under every Rock

If you are looking for the kick or the adventure, it seems like you have to invest more and more money to experience anything at all.
When asked “What are we going to do at the weekend?” More and more the answer is “Oh, nothing special. I have no money!”.

Mulde: Kayaking Summer

The Mulde is not nearly as well known as the Elbe, Danube, Isar, and co. – How comes? We were on the road on one of the underestimated rivers of Germany: The Mulde. In total, there are five different Mulde rivers (Red Mulde, White Mulde, Zwickauer Mulde, Freiberger Mulde, United Mulde).

Trekking Stove

Magic mirror in my hand, which is the best stove in the land?

Who was not already in the shop and felt overwhelmed by the sheer infinite selection of stoves? You are helplessly standing there and do not know at all the difference between the models and fuels, or where to start …

With this article, we want to bring light into the darkness and help you to find the right stove for your adventures.

Achterwasser: Kayaking Summer

Usedom. With an average of 1906 hours of sunshine per year, the island in the Baltic Sea is quite rightly considered “Germany’s sunshine island”!

When walking, paddling, jogging or other activities outdoors, you can see increasingly people with hydration bladders.

Down Feather

Down are small, very soft feathers. In most bird species, they grow under the visible feathers as an undergarment, ensuring optimum isolation of the bird from heat and cold.

Sleeping bag

Sleep is vital. Especially after physical exertion, the body needs sleep to recharge – and that’s exactly why you need a suitable sleeping bag.

Here are the key criteria to look for when choosing the right sleeping bag for your adventure.

Greifensteine: Climbing Summer

Climbing on the Greifensteine has a long tradition – already 100 years ago, climbers got to work on the rocks. At that time it was still mainly about the preparation for larger tours in the Alps, today are officially six of the seven Greifensteine as an independent climbing area.

Tromsø – Narvik: Kayaking Winter

Every year, the orcas head south off the coast of Norway. They follow the herring swarms along the Gulf Stream up to their spawning areas at the height of Ålesund.
The proximity to the mainland offers the unique opportunity to see the whales in their natural habitat.
… and that ‘s what we want to do – but not with a whale – watching boat, but with our own kayak …
