An artificially created foreland, visited in spring by many waders, and in winter by many waterfowl.
This seaside promontory is on the eastern edge of the island of Pellworm, in the middle of the Nationalpark Schleswig-Holsteinisches Wattenmeer. It jutts out into the shallow North Frisian sea and mudflats, and is crossed by many groynes and embankments. It's a great birding spot almost all-year-round, especially during migration times.
During high water throughout the year (except June), this is a major roosting area for Huîtrier pie, Courlis cendré, Bécasseau variable, Tadorne de Belon, Goéland argenté, Mouette rieuse and Chevalier gambette.
In spring (March - May) this also includes Barge rousse, Bécasseau maubèche, Bernache cravant, Tournepierre à collier, Grand Gravelot, Alouette des champs, Bergeronnette grise, Oie cendrée and Pluvier doré.
Breeding birds include Huîtrier pie, Grand Gravelot, Mouette rieuse, Avocette élégante,Chevalier gambette and Tadorne de Belon.
During summer one can find Sterne naine, Sterne pierregarin, Sterne arctique,Sterne caugek and Bécasseau cocorli, and in winter Eider à duvet and Canard siffleur.
With a little bit of luck, especially during autumn migration, Faucon pèlerin, Pygargue à queue blanche, Épervier d'Europe, Buse variable and with a lot of luck Hibou des marais can be spotted.
The island of Pellworm is reachable by the SCH Pellworm ferry (marked 1 on the map) from the 'Nordstrand (b Husum)' port on the mainland to the east. It's a 35min journey.
The best way to explore the area is by bike or foot. The path from the lighthouse (marked 2 on the map) in the south to the old harbor (marked 3 on the map) to the north is about 4 km, so an hour walk non-stop or 15min bike ride. By car you can only drive along the inner dikes, so one must repeatedly get out of the car to cross over them. From on top of the dike, you can easily observe the area from above.
Important: The area is particularly interesting during high tide (+/- 2 hours)! See a link to the tide table below.
