  • Alternatively, you go down the Alter Warf, cross the Steinbrückenweg, cross the sports field, come out at the Windallee and keep right until the White Gate, walk about 5 minutes.
• Das Weltnaturerbe Wattenmeer is at your doorstep and to start the holiday right, we recommend a walk around the Vareler Hafen (Round about 2.5 km). Numerous restaurants invite to small or large breaks and more than half of the tour you can enjoy without car traffic.

• Towards the northwest, in the Frisian Wehde there is the Neuenburger Urwald, of course, without lianas and wild animals, but with a lot of discovery potential, because the Neuenburger Urwald is only minimal groomed. The motto is: What falls down remains. Only paths are cleared and there is a well signposted “nodal point system (Knotenpunktsystem)”: http: //www.naturerlebnis-suedliches-friesland.de/urwaldwanderungen/karte for pedestrians and cyclists
