When we first packrafted the Lech River in 2013, it was clear that we will come back one day – in May 2018 we did.

Packrafting Switzerland – Reuss River – from Root to Bremgarten
Back in 2017 (and also in 2013), we packrafted the Reuss river from Bremgarten to Baden which is indeed a nice trip that I can recommend. This time, we spent one day on the Reuss and rafted from a place called “Root” (no joking – close to Lucerne) down to Bremgarten.

Winter Packrafting the River Thur – Switzerland
Even in winter you can catch awesome sunny days with perfect rafting conditions – we caught one of those days a few weeks ago and spent a full day packrafting the icy Thur River.

Packrafting the Glatt River – Switzerland
The Glatt River in Switzerland is most probably one of the worst rivers I have rafted so far – it simply covers all aspects that packrafters don’t like normally: lot’s of civilization, many spots where you need to get out of the river and hardly any interesting parts.

Check out two additional trip reports:
Packrafting the Phang Nga Bay – Phuket – Thailand
Packrafting Cheow Lan Lake – Khao Sok – Thailand
The Sok River in Thailand is leading through the southern part of the Khao Sok Nationalpark located roughly 200 km north of Phuket. The nationalpark itself is an artificial one created in 1982.
The Sok River is an excellent beginner river with (depending on season) whitewater level I / II maximum (end of November). It is close to civilization but you still get the possibility to see plenty of wildlife & jungle.
Packrafting the Phang Nga Bay – Phuket – Thailand
Check out two additional trip reports:
Packrafting the Sok River – Thailand
Packrafting Cheow Lan Lake – Khao Sok – Thailand
The Phang Nga Bay close to Phuket, Thailand, is primarily known for its tourist hotspots such as the James Bond Island where thousands of visitors hop on and off each year. However, there is much more to see in this bay – therefore, I decided to pay it a visit in November 2017 as one of the spots on my Thailand Packrafting Roundtrip.
