Duhnen Beach

Highlight • Beach

I cannot recommend a tour from Duhnen at this time of the year. From there you can continue along the coast to Sahlenburg, Spieka Neufeld and Dorum, but Duhnen is e.g. Currently overcrowded. In any case, I don't enjoy cycling there.

Dune Path in Duhnen

Highlight • Cycleway

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 👍🏻.

View of the Wadden Sea and Neuwerk Island from the dike

Highlight • Viewpoint

If you drive from Arensch onto the dyke, you have a very nice view of the Wadden Sea with the island of Neuwerk, which can be seen in the background and which belongs to Hamburg.

Grimmershörnbucht Promenade and View of the Kugelbake

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

The Grimmershörnbucht with its crescent-shaped arch from the ferry port to the Kugelbake is perhaps the geographically most distinctive place in Cuxhaven. Beautiful.

View of the Kugelbake and the beach at Steinmarner Seedeich

Highlight • Viewpoint

A very beautiful beach promenade and a beach with a restaurant, and nearby is a promenade with fresh fish, fries, ice cream, and much more. Cuxhaven's sandy beach is approximately five kilometers long, making it the longest beach on the German North Sea coast.
