Eider Barrage & Lock

Highlight (Segment) • Monument

Imposing structure with high dykes that serve as a bulwark against the storm surges of the North Sea. On the inland side, the wide estuary of the Eider extends to Tönning. When the tide is low, large mudflats are created on which numerous birds seek their food.

Narrow cycle path along the Eider

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Mostly well-paved, narrow bike path along the Eider. Gets tight when overtaking eBikes or excursion groups. Otherwise, however, quiet with a beautiful view!
PS: There is a paved path in the photos of Glen. I mean, at the south-western end it is a little bit like that, otherwise asphalt.

Historic Harbour of Tönning

Highlight • Historical Site

Only used by recreational captains. Goods handling and crab fishing no longer play a role. But still very nice to look at. There are numerous, very good restaurants all around.

It is also interesting that the boats are dry at low tide. So don't forget to fold in the sword. A friend had once moored her boat so that it hung in the air at low tide.
