Short running loop through slightly hilly heathland with great views of the mudflats. 

Enjoy the vastness and tranquility of the east of the island. The route takes you from the Morsum Cliff to the village of Morsum through heathland that blooms magnificently in purple in August and September. The paths are mostly made of firm sand and gravel, but some are somewhat uneven.

Directions

From the parking lot, walk a short distance back along the road toward the village, but then immediately take the turnoff to the right onto the hiking trail, which you continue straight ahead. Cross the Nuurhörn road and continue along Üp Klef, which, as the name suggests, offers a wonderful view of the cliff. Follow this road until you can turn left onto Ruar Ört. Then use this road to return to the starting point.
