Directions

On this route, you can discover the small harbor town of Hörnum, where you can refill your water bottle at the Wadden Sea Center and the Tourist Information Office. The tour then continues approximately 10 km north through the dunes to Rantum. The area around the harbor is also well worth a stroll. The ride continues to the island's main town, Westerland, where there are numerous refill partners. It's best to consult the map to see which one is closest to your route. Passing through Tinnum, with a possible stop at Holger Bodendorf's 5-star Landhaus Stricker for a refill, the route continues to the east coast and Braderup. The nature center there also offers refreshments. Passing Kampen, the cycle path leads you directly past the Klapphottal, which also provides fresh water. The destination is the northernmost point in Germany, with the northernmost refill station located at Alexandro Pape's Genussmacherei (Gourmet Shop) in the Lister Markt. Besides the delicious Sylt tap water, there are many other delicacies from the island to be found there.
