About the Crildumer Tief

It is very quiet here and you can almost always see anglers at work.

The Crildumer Tief is a low in the municipality of Wangerland in the district of Friesland in the north of Lower Saxony.
The approximately 12-kilometer-long and 12 to 15-meter-wide watercourse in the Jeverland, through which inland water flows into the North Sea, begins at the Tettenser Tief. The Crildumer Tief then flows in a northeasterly direction past Waddewarden, takes in the Südliche Verbindungstief and flows past Hooksiel. It takes in the Wüppelser Tief from the left and flows into the Hohenstief from the south one kilometer east of St. Joost. This flows into the Wangertief, which finally flows into the North Sea near Horumersiel.
In earlier times, the low was mainly used for drainage and as a transport route, and today it is also used for recreational sports such as paddling and fishing.
