The Ameland Song (1st and 2nd verses)

Where the waves crash,
The seagulls fly screaming,
singing from distant lands,
the waves their roaring song.

turning their heads seaward,
guarding the inland.

Maximum longest possible round trip on the outermost paths of Ameland. The tour leads in the north over the Dünenweg and in the south along the dike. To the west you look across to the neighboring island of Terschelling and to the east you can see Schiermonikoog from Ameland's highest point. The paths are great to drive on. Either paths …
