Attractions and Places To See around Langenhorn - Top 20

The loop around the Beltringharder Koog and over Nordstrand is also beautiful. Then perhaps over the car dam to Schobüll. Schobüll and Halebüll are located on a tongue of the Geest and therefore have no dyke. To the northwest of Schobüll there is a reed biotope, which is particularly scenic due to the fresh water that flows out. The old dyke of the Hattstedtermarsch from Lüttmoorsiel via Arlauschleuse and to Wobbenbüll has been patched up frequently due to many breaks. This makes it very winding, and inland there are often dikes, bodies of water that were created by the excavation for the repairs. The Arlau, which drains the area as far as the Geest, is also very impressive. The water can only flow to the side because of the clay bed below the ground, which makes the sea level important, and must not be allowed to rise too high.

The Hauke-Haien-Koog is an impressive bird sanctuary and a popular destination for cyclists and nature lovers in North Friesland. The Koog was dammed between 1958 and 1960 and is named after the main character in Theodor Storm's novella "The Rider on the White Horse". With an area of 1,250 hectares, of which around 700 hectares are for agricultural purposes and 538 hectares are freshwater reservoirs, the Koog is not only used for agriculture, but above all for bird and nature conservation. The cycle path along the dyke of the Hauke-Haien-Koog offers breathtaking views of the surrounding salt marshes and the diverse bird life. Especially during the migration periods in spring and autumn, the area is an important resting and moulting place for thousands of birds, including geese, ducks, avocets and terns. Rare species such as the bittern and the reed warbler can also be observed here. The cycle path is ideal for bird watching and offers numerous information boards and observation huts along the route. These are accessible all year round and offer insights into the flora and fauna of the protected area. In addition, the Jordsand Association, which looks after the area, offers regular guided tours and events.

Impressive Nabu protected area, about which further information is available at the information point on the Schafsberg

It is simply fantastic to ride this route, a well-developed "bicycle highway".

Schlüttsiel is not only a ferry port, but also a great place for a break. There is a beautiful meadow with many benches with a great view of the North Sea. There is also a bathing area here.

Schlüttsiel belongs to the municipality of Ockholm and is located on the Hauke-Haien Koog. It is just a port that was built in 1959. The port was named after the sluice. The ferry port of Schlüttsiel is one or perhaps even the starting point for boat connections that lead to the Halligen.

Hamburger Hallig, in the middle of the Wadden Sea National Park, owes its name not to the Hanseatic city, but to the merchants Arnold and Rudolf Amsinck. The two Hamburg natives had dikes built here in the 17th century and built themselves a stately home. The Amsinck House, an information center right on the dike, is named after them. Around two kilometers further west towards the North Sea is the Claus-Jürgen-Reitmann House, which is looked after by volunteer NABU employees from Easter to October. The small white house with the green roof is a good starting point for excursions into the area. https://www.nabu.de/natur-und-landschaft/natur-erleben/nabu-zentren/schleswig-holstein/24438.html

The former kitchen director on the MS Deutschland is called Erik Brack and he is the owner and chef of the restaurant Hallog Kroog on the Hamburger Hallig.
