Should you take a walk here, please also go near the outdoor pool, which was modernized during our time, and try a piece of the homemade cake in the café. It's really worth it. Have fun...

The outer dike of St. Margarethen is located near the Elbe and is now an important bird sanctuary. Originally, this area was part of a dike system that protected the hinterland from flooding. Over time, the harbor creek became increasingly silted up and port operations were discontinued. Today, the outer dike provides an important habitat for numerous bird species and is a popular destination for nature observation and cycling tours. The outer dike and the surrounding area are ideal for hikes and bike rides along the Elbe, with wonderful views of the passing ships. Historically, the area was also the site of a pilot station, but this was not rebuilt after a fire in 1902.

Brokdorf Beach is a small, picturesque sandy beach on the Elbe River, known for its beautiful sunsets and views of the nearby Brokdorf Nuclear Power Plant. Despite its proximity to the power plant, the beach is rarely crowded and is great for walking, photography, and cycling. However, visitors should be cautious of broken glass on the beach. The beach offers a tranquil environment and is a popular destination for locals and tourists who want to enjoy the natural beauty of the area.
