The beautiful island of Neuwerk

The beautiful island of Neuwerk is equally popular with nature lovers and those seeking peace and quiet. The daily routine is largely determined by the tides and the leisurely life is only interrupted when tourists from the mainland arrive for a day trip or vacation on the island. We particularly recommend arriving by mudflat car or on foot along the mudflat hiking trail across the sea floor. An experience that you won't soon forget. Watt wagon operations are either on the island or from the mainland. The island lies in front of Cuxhaven, but belongs to the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg. If you enter the mudflats from Sahlenburg or Duhnen, you can see the Neuwerker lighthouse from afar, which, with its more than 700 years, is one of the oldest towers on the German North Sea coast. The extensive mudflats are an important habitat for many breeding and resting birds. Interested holidaymakers can take part in guided mudflat hikes through the UNESCO World Heritage Site / Hamburg Wadden Sea or look for amber in the mudflats in front of Neuwerk. The charm of this island pulls many nature lovers under its spell and leaves an unforgettable impression on them.
