    Running

    The path runs right along the coast and offers beautiful views and information boards about the planets. The path is a bit difficult for walking because the path has a side slope.

    Here you walk on asphalt in front of the dike. Also a good mental training for ambitious marathon runners, as it is only straight ahead for some kilometers.
    The information boards of the planetary educational trail are a good change.

    Running

    The Planet Trail stretches approximately 8 km from Bensersiel to Neuharligersiel. An adjacent dike is regularly grazed by sheep, which can be admired along the trail. Opposite Bensersiel is a bird sanctuary. Many different species can be admired here. Binoculars are especially useful at this spot!
