May 31, 2025,Von der Badestelle Elpersbüttel zur Hallig Helmsand, zurück am NSG Kronenloch entlang

February 2, 2022,Helmsand - die letzte Hallig in der Meldorfer Bucht

Helmsand as a former Hallig is worth a visit. With rising tide and a lot of wind with stormy gusts, we did this hike.
However, the resting and breeding area is closed from April to July.
