June 21, 2026, Gotteskoogsee Nature Reserve

The Gotteskoog was diked more than 400 years ago. It is the largest polder in the district of Nordfriesland. Since 1982, the polder has been undergoing renaturation and is partially being re-watered. More info: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotteskoog

Beautiful, free trekking spot of the "Wild Schleswig-Holstein" initiative... It is not for nothing that it is called "Mosquito Paradise"... there can be countless mosquitoes here... the spot is beautifully situated by a lake with seating area
