Cleanup at Echinger Weiher – Adventure Coffee meets Community
Share
On Sunday, March 22, 2026, the Echinger Weiher near Munich became a meeting point for people who wanted to make a difference together. In collaboration with the Surfrider Foundation Munich and ABC-Divers, we hosted a cleanup — above and below the water.
Taking action above and below the surface
While the divers from ABC Divers cleaned the lake underwater, volunteers on land collected waste around the area. The Echinger Weiher is not only an important training spot for the local diving community, but also a valuable ecosystem for plants and wildlife.
Together, more than 40 volunteers joined forces to remove waste and protect this special place.
Adventure Coffee with Aloha Coffee & YETI
Aloha Coffee was right in the middle of it:
We didn’t just help with the cleanup — we also kept everyone going with fresh, hot coffee, true adventure coffee served right at the lake.
A special thanks goes to our partner YETI, who equipped us with high-quality YETI cups and YETI French press coffee makers. This allowed us to brew fresh coffee directly on-site — perfect for outdoor conditions and exactly what you need after time in and around cold water.
Strong community, real impact
Events like this show how important it is to take responsibility and support local initiatives. The cleanup at Echinger Weiher was not only about protecting the environment, but also about strengthening community and shared values.
A big thank you to Surfrider Foundation Munich for having us involved once again 🤝
We’re already looking forward to the next cleanups.
Protect what you love. Aloha.
