Between 1993 and 2001, heavy machinery was used to mine clay to reinforce the main dike between Mariensiel and Dangast. That was a massive encroachment on nature. - Over the decades, this area is now a diverse habitat that resembles the oxbow lake of a river. - Above all, the closed reed border on the banks offers protection for numerous animal species. The wetland offers many bird species a protected habitat. Here they find food, can brood and rest. - You should always have binoculars or spotting scope with you, there are interesting things to discover in every season.

Very nice landscape right along the dike ... The route from Vareler Hafen am Deich long to Dangast should be enjoyed ... ideal to drive when the weather is nice

Great expanse of water where many species of birds can be stopped and observed.
