Very nice bike paths. The only thing that can stop you here are the sheep 🐑 and possibly the long-term headwind 🌬

Sheep on the North Sea Dike

Highlight • Natural

By the end of March, there are already plenty of lambs. Along the dike, you're right in the middle of it. Ride carefully, as they cross right in front of your bike. There are many barriers to negotiate.

August 29, 2025,Westerhever Leuchtturm mit dem Rad

Today I grabbed a bike and set off. Given the windy coastal conditions, I opted for the e-bike option.
It's a pretty old bike, but it did the job.
Thanks to the early start, there was hardly anything going on, and then I took the opportunity to climb the 160 steps at the lighthouse.

June 15, 2025,Nordseeküsten-Radweg - Zwischenetappe Eiderstedt: Westerhever, Osterhever, Garding

If you're already in the area, the Westerjever—er—hever lighthouse is a must. A wonderful route along the mudflats—lots of mudflats at low tide (and sheep droppings, not just at low tide)—right up to the lighthouse. And, oh wonder, there are only a few cyclists here this early. As we set off again, the pilgrims' column begins. Back via Osterhever—yes, there's …

May 3, 2025,Westerhever Leuchturm - Wattenmeer Runde

Following dikes and dike paths along the North Frisian Wadden Sea, our destination was the Westerhever Lighthouse, the landmark of Eiderstedt. Unfortunately, a visit wasn't possible, but we still have a few days left.

The kite buggies were out on the beach today at low tide.
