The nature reserve is fed by the sea water of the North Sea. It was set up in 1985. You can find out more about the Kronenloch in the NABU National Park House. While you cycle through the area on the beautifully landscaped bike path, you can enjoy the beautiful nature. Take a break and keep an eye out for the birds that make their home here.

The Kronenloch nature reserve, set up in 1985, is fed by salt water from the North Sea, which flows into a circulating channel via an inlet (Meldorfer Hafen) and is distributed around the island.

A vegetation developed in the nature reserve, from individual salt marsh plants to bushes of willow and sea buckthorn, largely without human influence. Entering the immediate vicinity of the crown hole is therefore prohibited. But by building an observation platform and an observation hut, guests get a glimpse of the flora and fauna. Nature protection information signs are available to give the observer precise, detailed clues for observing the fauna and flora.

Bird species such as the barnacle goose, wigeon, curlew, greylag goose, redshank, shelduck, greenshank, dunlin, oystercatcher, bluethroat and sedge warbler.

The NABU National Park House "Wattwurm" is on the other side of the road from the observation hut. Extensive display boards and exhibits are available in this house with its striking semicircular shape, which is based on a lugworm. Supervised by two volunteers, the NABU Wattwurm National Park House offers extensive information, a modern exhibition and a barrier-free nature trail. It is also a meeting point for various guided tours in front of and behind the dike.

South of the new Meldorf harbor is the 532-hectare Kronenloch nature reserve. Here, for the first time, a saltwater biotope with a tidal influence was created on the west coast within a dike. In the now designated wilderness area (Natura 2000) the goal is: “Let nature be nature”.
