Solo tour from Locarno to Venice in a folding kayak
Born in Australia and raised in Switzerland, I always wondered if you could go from Switzerland to the ocean on waterways.
In September 2016 I paddled the 540km from Locarno, Switzerland to Venice, Italy in my Big Kahuna folding kayak by Feathercraft. It was a tough but amazing trip on the Lago Maggiore, Ticino Inferiore, Po and the sea.
2 weeks of 6-7h a day paddling in rivers with low water level but amazing weather, starting with around 60kg of luggage, including tent, cooker and food for nearly two weeks.
An amazing trip where I learned a lot about myself and life itself just by being outside in the nature for two weeks.

Please check out the fantastic map I used as a base for the trip by Steve Peacewalker:
Big Kahuna sea kayaks are not supposed for white water in general but up to WWIII they worked perfectly for me:
Ortlieb bags kept my stuff perfectly dry:
Cheapest but lightest & best tent I ever owned: Navigator South Hiker by NZ supermarket
Reliable & fast cooker: PRIMUS OmniLite Ti
I don’t get paid by any of them, I just loved their stuff for this trip, so go check them out!
