From Camp Norddeich, the route continues west along a well-developed bike path to Greetsiel. The route is very easy to ride, but depending on the wind direction, one path may be easier, and a headwind may be more strenuous.

Great tour. Outward journey in 1.25 hours with a headwind, back 55 minutes with a tailwind 😊

The Pilsum Lighthouse 💡, also known to most of us as the Otto Tower, is one of East Frisia's most famous landmarks, with a height of approximately 12 meters. We've been there many times, and we also know the wedding room; it's always beautiful.

Of course, Greetsiel wasn't missed - and yes, we even had an ice cream 🍦.

Today, in glorious weather, we cycled from Norddeich along the North Sea, "over, under, or in front of the dike," toward Greetsiel.

We cycled through flocks of sheep on well-maintained paths to the tranquil fishing village of Greetsiel.
Once there, we parked our bikes and cycled through lovely, narrow streets.

Of course, we had a cold drink or two.

...a very nice tour...was planning to do a round tour over the NORTH.... but it was so windy that the round tour went in front of the dyke and the return tour went behind the dyke....
