2 Min.The Camino Real, once a vibrant trade route between the Pacific and the Caribbean, is a hidden gem in the Panamanian jungle. Disappeared and overgrown for centuries, the original route was only rediscovered in 2008 and now allows adventurous hikers to travel back in time.
18 Min.Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, an ice stream that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a via ferrata that ends in a cave, delicious hut cuisine – the gorges, valleys and mountains of the Swiss canton of Valais offer plenty of history, delicacies and awe-inspiring sights.
17 Min.The islands in the west of Scotland offer spectacular backdrops for outdoor adventures: Windswept coastlines, sheer cliffs, rolling geography, dark skies, endless views. The barrenness, vastness and harsh beauty of this landscape, its rustic and warm-hearted people – that’s what this story is about.

16 Min.Four days on foot in the Kruger National Park. With sleep-outs and night watches. I accompany prospective rangers and field guides in what is probably the most dangerous part of their training: Encounters with wildlife and large animals. The reportage is also about self-management, discomfort, life goals, fears and personal growth.
2 Min.The impressive basalt columns of Staffa Island inspired painters, composers and writers to create masterpieces. On Lismore you will find Duns, Brochs and shepherds, but no police. At Buchanan Castle, nature proves that everything is ephemeral, even the most magnificent buildings.
2 Min.No other country has smuggled itself into my soul more persistently than Burma. I wandered through towns, caves, fields and monasteries, hiked to remote hill tribes and documented novice ceremonies, weddings and cremations.
The greatest discoveries were the people of Burma, their touching tolerance and warm-heartedness. With TIMELESS BURMA, I want to make the photographs appear timeless as well as these timeless values. It is my final declaration of love to the country and its people.
18 Min.Deep in the Amazon region is a place where you can experience the rainforest in an extraordinary way, surrounded by the wilderness and all its inhabitants.
23 Min.Breathtaking desert landscapes, impressive mountain ranges, exuberant hospitality and delicious food. Oman offers all of that. I venture deep into the interior – the 7th Hole Cave on the Selmah Plateau is quite something.
29 Min.Scientists called Venezuela’s Salto Angel waterfall the eighth wonder of the world. The dreamlike, yet mystical Table Mountains inspired James Cameron for his film Avatar. And I finally fulfilled my long-cherished No. 1 travel dream on my fourth attempt: a trip to what I consider the most spectacular landscape in the world.
