Directions
We start at the parking lot in front of the Rantum church and walk along the beach path, past the beach shelter, to the beach crossing. Before the beach steps, we keep left and follow the gravel path on the dune. This leads to the paved Henning-Rinken-Wai, which we follow for a short distance until the path runs through the Rantum dunes on the right. We follow this path through the nature reserve until we reach the path to Tadjem Deel. Here we turn left and cross Hörnum Straße with a view of the Wadden Sea. From here we head north on the Raanwai until we switch to the pedestrian path north in front of the Hotel Watthof. We follow this path to the supermarket, where we return to our starting point via the beach path.
