An island accessible from land. One of the largest saltmarshes at the German coast with almost all the Wadden Sea related bird species.
The saltmarshes of the Hamburger Hallig reach from the dike four kilometers to the actual Hallig near the water. There is one path that you can follow. Right at the parking lot is a ditch which is covered with reed. In spring and summer this is good spot to look for blåhake, rörsångare, sävsångare and Sävsparv. Also a few pairs of kornsparv breed behind the dike. When over the dike, there is an area with shorter vegetation where especially in spring an autumn thousands of prutgås and vitkindad gås forage for their journey to the south or north. When you look closely between these geese there are sometimes rarities like rödhalsad gås or other subspecies of prutgås. In these times there are also many tofsvipa and ljungpipare. In winter the dike is the best place to look for snösparv, berglärka and vinterhämpling. Between these there are sometimes rarities like lappsparv.
Halfway to the Hallig there is the "Schafsberg", a hill with a little hut on it. From there you have a great view over the saltmarshes. In spring and summer they are full of life. Birds like rödspov, skärfläcka, strandskata, ängspiplärka and sånglärka breed in large numbers in the meadows. This is also the spot with one of the highest densities of rödbena at the whole coast of Nordfriesland. Birds of prey are also common visitors in the saltmarshes. brun kärrhök is there from spring to autumn, blå kärrhök from autumn until spring, while havsörn can be seen the whole year.
From the actual Hallig you have a good view on the mudflats of the Wadden Sea. kärrsnäppa, myrspov, kustsnäppa and kustpipare come in high numbers in spring and autumn to forage. skrattmås, Gråtrut, ejder and sometimes småskrake breed at the edge of the Hallig while silvertärna and fisktärna only come here to forage.
With public transport the Hamburger Hallig can best be done from Bredstedt, the nearest trainstation. From there a bus goes there irregularly. If you come with the car, you can park at in the parking lot behind the dike. Click on the P in the map for directions. From there you can either walk or rent a bike cheaply and ride further to the Hallig. The way to the end of the Hallig is about four kilometers.
