Langerwarder Groden

Salt marshes Butjadingen, Lower-Saxony, Germany

What to expect

Langwarder Groden is a nature and bird conservation area located at the northern tip of the Butjadingen Peninsula, part of the Niedersachsen Wadden Sea National Park. The area features a well-maintained, fully accessible circular trail of just over five kilometers, suitable for families and awarded the Kinderferienland quality mark for child-friendly companies. Visitors can enjoy unspoiled nature, including diverse wildlife, beautiful landscapes, and scenic views of the Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage Site. The trail is ideal for nature lovers, families with pets, birdwatchers, and hikers seeking tranquility. However, there are restrictions on dog access due to sheep grazing areas. The area has basic facilities such as toilets and information boards about nature and wildlife, and a self-service café is nearby. Visitors are advised to bring binoculars, check tide times, and wear suitable, waterproof shoes with tread, especially in autumn and winter when the path can be muddy or flooded

This family's experience:

Activities: We explored the circular hiking trail on the Langerwarder Groden. We walked over paths and wooden walkways through the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site with the salt marshes. We went wading in puddles

Highlights: The circular hiking trail on the Langerwarder Groden is suitable for the whole family, as the path is partly barrier-free and therefore also suitable for prams or wheelchairs ✨
