A "new" footbridge was inaugurated here in April 2024. The nature trail "Beerster Wischen - Experience Nature for People with and Without Disabilities" has reopened. The Cuxhaven District Nature Conservation Foundation built a 300-meter-long boardwalk as barrier-free access to the partially newly created extensive wet meadows and ponds. With the help of a water scoop and an Archimedes' screw, water can be transported and life in and around the water can be experienced with all the senses. Information stations on the local biotopes complement this nature experience. - https://www.naturschutzstiftung-cuxhaven.de/unsere-projekte/projektgebiete/beerster-wischen.html - https://www.nordsee-zeitung.de/Cuxland/Beerster-Wischen-Der-Naturerlebnispfad-ist-ein-Meilenstein-fuer-die-Inklusion-204926.html

The 150-meter-long walkway is barrier-free and leads to several information stations. The Archimedes' screw and the water scoop allow water to be pumped upwards. The Beerster Wischen are one of the few barrier-free nature experiences in the region. There used to be a 300-meter-long circular boardwalk. After renovation, the walkway ends with a platform.
