Wyk on Föhr town center

Highlight • Settlement

Wyk is the island capital with a shopping mile, many restaurants and a beautiful beach. The ferry also docks here.

As an independent municipality, Wyk has been mentioned in historical sources since the middle of the 17th century. At that time the place only consisted of a few houses, the residents of which lived mainly from fishing.

Sheep of varying sizes and numbers are spread out along the entire dike path!

Old houses in Nieblum

Highlight • Cafe

Red or white painted brick, thatched roofs and the lattice windows, that is typical for Föhr and the North Frisian Islands.
Unfortunately, most of the houses are empty and are only used as vacation homes by the rich and beautiful.

Nieblum village centre

Highlight • Settlement

The ice cream parlor of the "Eis Däne" in Nieblum is a tip for delicious ice cream. But the tea shop "Alte Thee Hus" is also worth a visit.

When you cycle through the north of Föhr, you can easily understand why it's called the "green island." Extensive grassy fields dotted with sheep graze on the island's shoreline form an impressive natural belt that invites you to linger.

We're cycling halfway around the island. We don't have enough time for the whole island. We start in Oevenum and make a loooong stop at an 80th birthday party 🎂 ☕️ in Nieblum. We leave our bikes there for a short while to visit the cemetery on foot. Towards evening, …
