On the west side of Kampen, the Red Cliff stretches for approximately 4 kilometers between Kampen and Wenningstedt. At its highest point, the elevation difference from the cliff edge to the beach is approximately 30 meters. The red color of the cliff is caused by the oxygen in the iron-rich clay. Especially in the evening light at sunset, the Red Cliff glows in a vibrant color, creating a very special atmosphere on Kampen's beach.
Since 1979, the Red Cliff and the heathland beginning at the upper edge of the cliff have been a nature reserve.
