This tour takes you from Westerland to Wenningstedt, visiting most of the sights in Wenningstedt and Westerland.

This tour is suitable for both a short morning or evening stroll and a relaxing day trip. Many of Sylt's sights are located along the way. If you take the time to visit them, the relatively short journey can easily be extended to a full day. For example, on this route you can admire the fish in the Sylt Aquarium, admire the Denghoog megalithic tomb from the inside, play a round on the Wenningstedt minigolf course, around the Wenningstedt village pond or through the Südwäldchen (Southern Forest), visit the churches of St. Niels, St. Nikolai, and the Frisian Chapel, stroll along the Westerland and Wenningstedt promenades, or simply "look over the edge" at the many beach crossings.

Directions

From the Traveler's Giants in the Wind at the train station, the route continues through Old Westerland, past the small church of St. Niels, toward Wenningstedt. From the railway path, we follow the cycle path parallel to the L24. Once in Wenningstedt, the tour first takes us to the village pond and then to the Wenningstedt promenade with the Haus am Kliff (House on the Cliff). From here, the route continues parallel to the beach behind the dunes, following the cycle path back to Westerland. In Westerland, we pass the Sylter Welle (Sylt Wave), cross Friedrichstraße, and continue to the aquarium. Behind the Sylt stadium, just before the Südwäldchen (South Woods), we turn off and cycle along Drosselweg to Lorens-de-Hahn-Straße, which leads us back to the train station.
