The Eiderstedt peninsula is surrounded by the North Sea on three sides.. The entire landscape is crossed by drainage ditches that divide the agricultural area.. These fields and pastures are managed by large farms, on which the typical Eiderstedt ´Haubarge´ stand.. see travel info ´Haubarg on the peninsula Eiderstedt´

Particularly worth seeing on the peninsula are the 18 churches, which all impress with their rich interior decoration and represent the early wealth of the farmers in this area.. The colonization of the peninsula has been proven since 100 AD, but only in the eighth to tenth century began a resettlement by the Frisians.. For centuries, the sea has determined life.. Dike protection and land reclamation were repeatedly threatened and destroyed by major storm surges.. Today, water history has another meaning, because water is an important factor for tourism and recreation.. The places Garding, Tönning and St. -Peter-Ording are popular holiday destinations on the peninsula Eiderstedt..

It is therefore advisable to reserve a parking space in good time.. Even in the low season - on a long weekend - the seats were booked from 16 00 clock..

The side streets on Eiderstedt are narrow, often with only one lane.. The most beautiful routes can be found on a bicycle tour..
