Greune Stee Forest (Borkum Forest)

Highlight • Forest

Tree donations in the seventies created this mixed forest. I hated him as a child, I preferred to go to the beach. Now I love it with its biodiversity

South Beach at Ruhezone I/10

Highlight • Beach

It's very quiet here. Few tourists get lost on this stretch of beach. You can also get there relatively easily by bike. Further towards the beach it is difficult to push the bike through the sand.

Wooden boardwalk to the salt marshes (Borkum, Greune Stee to South Beach)

Highlight • Trail

The new boardwalk offers a completely new approach to this part of the island. To my surprise there was also this beautiful pheasant to see!

February 16, 2023,Borkum: Gruene Stee

This route is Nordic Walking route 8. Contrary to the drawing in flyers and on overview maps, it does not go in a wide arc, but directly past the Kugelbake (green) to the beach. However, since the whole route is poorly signposted, I followed the big arch. Hang in there.

In general it is a beautiful area.
