Bike Tour Eastern Frisia

East Friesland Deluxe

Coast, lighthouses and the Wadden Sea

Cycling in East Frisia means cycling along the dykes and coast and past lighthouses. The East Frisian island of Norderney is particularly easy to explore by bike. You can enjoy the fresh sea breeze on the North Sea without a care in the world. But it is not only the stiff breeze that is typically East Frisian, but also the dreamy Fehn canals, unspoilt moorland and a very special kind of tea ceremony. Here it can also mean ‘cycling always hard in the wind’ - preferably with a tailwind!

Itinerary

Your journey takes you to the oldest town in East Frisia - the town of ‘Norden’. In the late afternoon, the information meeting and bike handover (if booked) will take place.  

Cycle along the dyke to the 600-year-old fishing village of Greetsiel and on to the Pilsum lighthouse. Cycling through the inland, you reach Eilsum, with its 36 metre high bell tower. You return northwards via the old Wirdum dyke.

Visit the island of Norderney today (ferry included) and unwind. Alternatively, the town of Norden also has plenty to offer, e.g. the tea museum, the museum railway or a trip to the seal breeding station in Norddeich.  

You cycle first to the pirate's nest of the Störtebeker and on to Münkeboe, where you can gain an insight into the life and work of the inhabitants of a small moorland village 100 years ago in the Dörpmuseum. You reach Lütetsburg via Berumerfehn and Hage. The castle park is one of the largest and most beautiful in northern Germany, where you can round off the day in the castle park café.

From Norddeich you cycle along the East Frisian North Sea coast: possibility to discover Baltrum by ferry (not included, see note) or alternatively enjoy typical East Frisian tea and homemade cake (included) in Dornum.

Note: Baltrum ferry crossing (no bike transport possible)
The ferry to Baltrum is tide-dependent, so it is only clear at the time of booking whether a visit to Baltrum is possible. We are happy to take care of the booking, approx. € 33,- per person. It is also possible to cycle to the pier on the day of travel and then decide which alternative to cycle.

After breakfast, individual return journey or start of your extension.
