A beautiful hiking area for both short and long hikes. Every season has its charm. It's especially lovely in spring when the trees turn a delicate green, the ponies give birth to their foals, and the cattle to their calves. But the area is also a feast for the eyes during the heather bloom in late summer. This year, even a winter hike through the deep snow was a wonderful experience.

A beautiful hiking trail through the Duhnen Heath; even in February, there's stunning nature to see. A great opportunity for a picnic. Highly recommended and interesting at the same time.

Hi, We had a great hike today in the Duhner Heide nature reserve in Cuxhaven. We explored the Duhner Heide, which is a protected area, and it was wonderful – well worth a visit, even in February 💝. A quick trip to the beach was a must, of course – always beautiful 😊. A fantastic cycling and hiking trail runs through the beautiful natural surroundings. Absolutely spectacular and highly recommended 👍🏻. ...

A beautiful viewing platform offers a fantastic view of the sea and the island of Neuwerk. There's also a telescope at the top, but you'll need a coin to use it. At the bottom of the viewing platform is one of the stamp boxes for the North Sea Travel Passport.
