Your bike tour to the Wadden Sea Islands begins in Husum. Once dubbed the grey town by the sea by the writer Theodor Storm, probably the town's most famous son, Husum welcomes you with a lively old town, a colourful harbour and a surprisingly diverse range of cultural events. Visit the Nordfriesland Museum. There are insights into dike construction and coastal protection as well as into the Frisian way of life. Learn more about the Halligen off the coast, which you will visit in the coming days.

Right at the beginning of your bike tour to the Wadden Sea Islands, take the train to the seaside resort of St. Peter-Ording. Treat yourself to an extensive sunbath on the 12-kilometre-long sandy beach and watch the kite surfers as they jet across the North Sea waves. On the beach, you will notice the striking pile dwellings. For more than 100 years, they have been catering for the physical well-being of beach visitors. You cycle along the coast back to Husum. On the way, the red and white striped lighthouse of Westerhever will catch your eye. It is the landmark of the Eiderstedt peninsula.

The second stage starts early in the morning today, but there is also a lot to experience: You start the day with the cycle tour from Husum to the Nordstrand peninsula. You will take the ferry (included) from Strucklahnungshörn to Hallig Hooge as early as 9.15 a.m., but this leaves you plenty of time in the Wadden Sea. After about an hour's drive you will reach Hooge, whose terps you can already see from afar. The Hallig is the second largest in the North Frisian Wadden Sea. Explore the small island by bike. Visit the Königspesel, an original captain's house, and the storm surge cinema, which shows the omnipresent danger of storm surges on film. In the afternoon, take the ferry (included) to Schlüttsiel, where you will stay for the next few days.

Today you take the ferry (not included) to Hallig Langeneß. The narrow and elongated Hallig is the largest of the ten North Frisian Halligs. Explore Langeneß in a relaxed way on your bike and get to know the Hallig, which is characterised by wide meadows and small watercourses. Visit the Captain Tadsen Museum on Ketelswarft and the Friesenstube on Honkenswarft. Or how about a detour to the Nordmarsch lighthouse at the western tip of Langeneß? Take the ferry back to Schlüttsiel.

On today's excursion day of your bike tour to the Wadden Sea Islands, you are spoilt for choice. You can choose to visit the island of Föhr or the island of Amrum. First you cycle to Dagebüll. From there you can comfortably reach the respective island by ferry (not included). With Föhr you get to know the green island. Thanks to its protected location, it has particularly lush vegetation. Explore the island by bike or enjoy the sound of the North Sea on the southern beach. On Amrum you can also enjoy a kilometre-long sandy beach, the so-called Kniepsand. Or how about a guided mudflat hike? In the evening you return to Dagebüll by ferry (not included). You will spend the night in Schlüttsiel.

From Schlüttsiel you cycle back to Husum. With the North Sea in view, you reach the dam to Hamburger Hallig after a few kilometres. The small peninsula is very easy to reach by bike. Treat yourself to a culinary break in the only inn and enjoy the view of the Wadden Sea and the surrounding Halligen. Back on the mainland, take a relaxing drive along salt marshes to Husum. Enjoy the rest of the day walking through the park of Husum Castle and visit the Theodor Storm House, which gives you insights into the life and work of the writer.

After breakfast, your bike tour to the Wadden Sea Islands already ends. We are happy to extend your stay in Husum or Schlüttsiel with an extra night.
