Described as paradise by the many paddlers, climbers and bikers that have moved there never fails to disappoint with evening SUP trips down the Inn, Wellebrucke laps and even a bit of downhill biking to spice things up! It really is a super full on area, and definitely a place that should be on everyone\u2019s trip list.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On Friday morning we headed back over to the S2S camp where we paddled the river Sill, which was a little on the low side but we had a successful run non-the less. \u00a0Saturday brought the start of the festival along with some better weather!! Both Matt and I played on the lake in the morning doing some polo, and then in the afternoon I left Matt running his extremely popular \u2018come and try it\u2019 sessions on the lake, and went to do the Melach Race.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/IMG_8513.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16448 alignleft\" alt=\"IMG_8513\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/IMG_8513-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"257\" height=\"171\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/IMG_8513-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/IMG_8513-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 257px) 100vw, 257px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-16445 alignright\" alt=\"IMG_8504\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/IMG_8504-1024x550.jpg\" width=\"281\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/IMG_8504-1024x550.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/IMG_8504-300x161.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 281px) 100vw, 281px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The race was rocky and narrow but fairly fast with the team event times coming in around the 15-minute mark, and individual races at 4 minutes.
