    Tips

    August 1, 2019

    The Selfkant is the westernmost point of Germany you should really explore, preferably by bike.
    Selfkant belongs to the so-called Zipfel places.
    In the west the Selkant
    In the north List on Sylt
    In the east Görlitz in Saxony
    In the south Obersdorf in the Allgäu Alps
    By the way, if you visit all 4 Zipfel locations within 4 years, you will receive a typical gift from the 4 municipalities.
    Even so, Germany can be explored on a great white.

        The westernmost point of Germany is also the narrowest point in the Netherlands. The Netherlands is 4.8 km wide here.
