Braderup Heath

The Braderuper Heide nature reserve covers almost 140 hectares.
Idyllically situated between Braderup and Kampen, the Braderup Heath is a popular destination for walks all year round. Picturesque wooden paths and steps lead through the nature reserve. Enjoy the expansive views of the unique flora and fauna, as well as the Wadden Sea.

Heather blooms only for a short time. As a rule of thumb, it blooms from August 8.8th to September 9.9th. 

The heathland in Schleswig-Holstein is under severe threat. Only 0,5% of the area is covered by heathland. Sylt is of particular importance because 50% of Schleswig-Holstein's heathland is still found on the island alone. Not only the three heath species—crowberry, cross-leaved heath, and common heather—can be found here, but also spotted orchid, arnica, sundew, and lungwort. Redshanks, shelducks, and oystercatchers build their nests in the heathland or the large salt marshes on the mudflats. Therefore, it is important to protect the heathland to preserve biodiversity.

Please help preserve the nature reserve:

- Do not leave any rubbish in nature.
- Keep your dog on a leash and remove its droppings.
